A Little Green Leaf

by Kimberly Denness-Thomas

This original, one-act play is inspired by the true story of Odette Hallowes and her time as an SOE agent and Holocaust survivor.
*This play is suitable for audiences aged 11 and over but, whilst not graphic in its descriptions,
​it does refer to concentration camps, starvation and torture, which those of a sensitive nature may find disturbing.*

"I am a very ordinary woman to whom a chance has been given to see human beings at their best and at their worst.  I completely believe in the potential nobility of the human spirit." ~ Odette Hallowes
A Little Green Leaf tells the story of Odette, not only as a spy but as a woman whose choices, guided by humanity and light in the face of unimaginable suffering, shaped her survival. Honoured with the George Cross for her bravery, Odette dedicated her post-war life to honoring the women whose stories could no longer be told. She helped establish the Woman of the Year Award and worked tirelessly to speak for her fallen comrades.

​Our hope is to share Odette’s story with the world, sparking new conversations about the Holocaust, fascist oppression, and what "peace" truly means in today’s world. With your support, A Little Green Leaf will give Odette’s voice a platform, spreading light where peace and hope can grow.
