Mikron Theatre will première a new Amanda Whittington play about the pioneering women of Britain’s police force.
A Force To Be Reckoned With will open at Marsden Mechanics Hall May 13 and then tour nationally by canal, river and road until October 21 including a performance at the Greater Manchester Police Museum & Archives.
With handbag, whistle and a key to the Police Box, WPC Iris Armstrong is ready for whatever the mean streets of a 1950s market town throws at her.
