Synopsis

World War II. Arizona. African American nurses arrive on an army base camp. Join Mayvee, Marjorie, Georgia, Elinor, and Thelma on their journey as they face the biggest challenge of their lives. Inequality, growing racial tension and a society that does not acknowledge their efforts, when all they want is to fight for their country.

THE PLAYWRIGHT

In 2016 Ailema graduated from a one-year acting course at RADA, and more recently, has appeared in a short film: 'Shut Up, I Love you' directed by Hannah Owen, which won the runner-up prize at the Fresh Faced Film Festival associated with the BFI. 'Fort Huachuca' will be the first full-length staged play written by Ailema. https://www.forthuachucaplay.com/
