It only takes one voice to resist.

Caught by the Nazis distributing forbidden leaflets, Sophie Scholl is facing execution. Only one route remains: confession and betrayal of everything she stood for… but will she take it? What would you be willing to die for?

Nominated for a 2023 CATS Award for Best Production for Children and Young People, Strange Town Touring Company’s Storm Lantern is a timely examination of the final hours of Sophie Scholl at a moment in history when the forces of fascism are on the rise once more.

Wed 5 June 2024 performance includes a post-show discussion with the director and cast.

Supported by Thrive Edinburgh. The Traverse Theatre is funded by Creative Scotland and The City of Edinburgh Council.
