What is it?

Arrows & Traps Theatre present The White Rose: The Story of Sophie Scholl, from Tuesday 17th July to Saturday 4th August, at the Brockley Jack Studio Theatre in London.

Based on a true story, The White Rose recounts the final days of Sophie Scholl, a 21-year-old student who led the only major act of German civil disobedience during the Second World War.  Scholl, along with her brother Hans, published underground anti-Nazi leaflets calling for the peaceful overthrow of Hitler.

This timely and provocative play, tells her story and explores the role that German citizens played in the rise of Hitler. This play examines the moral strength and courage that led a group of young people to risk their lives for a righteous, dangerous cause.  This production marks the 75th anniversary of Sophie Scholl’s execution.

Seven-time Off West End Award Nominated Arrows & Traps Theatre return to the Jack after their sold-out run of Chekhov’s Three Sisters.
