Information

Girls on Fire follows the story of Hannie Schaft and Freddie and Truus Oversteegen, three young women who were fundamental in the Dutch resistance during World War Two. As a trio, they seduced and killed civilian traitors and Nazi soldiers, posing as ‘Moffen girls’ to gain the soldiers’ trust and lead them into the woods, where the executions took place. Girls on Fire follows the girls' journey, from their first meetings, through their time in the war, up until Hannie Schaft's execution in 1945, just weeks before the end of the war in the Netherlands. Using folksong and physical theatre to enhance the story-telling, this multidisciplinary piece challenges the audiences’ perceptions of conflict and morality, serving as a reminder of the timeless evidence of violence, war and those who rise against it.
