"When a final analysis is made of twentieth-century Canadian theater, the most significant political playwright will undoubtedly be David Fennario."-Canadian Book Review This powerful drama gives a voice to the disillusioned working-class women employed at the British Munitions Factory in Verdun, Quebec, during World War I. Despite tension over conscription, dedicated mothers, wives, sisters, and sweethearts assemble artillery shells to support the war effort. Meanwhile, their beloved soldiers die abroad and their children starve at home because of war profiteers. David Fennario is an award-winning playwright and performer whose plays have been widely produced as well as televised on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
