Higher Faster Louder by Marilyn Marsh-Booth
JUTE Theatre Company proudly presents its latest production, Higher Faster Louder, a new play born from the remarkable experiences of Marilyn Marsh-Booth, one of the world’s first female commercial pilots during the transformative era of women’s liberation in the 1960s.
Fast and furiously funny, this play challenges the status quo and persistent gender barriers that continue to linger in our modern world.
Higher Faster Louder reminds audiences that true change often comes from courage and perseverance, embracing the unknown, and pushing the boundaries of possibility. Be brave and never give up on your dreams.
Prepare to be moved as Marilyn’s story unfolds on stage, flying the highs and the lows of what it takes to change the world. The sky is not the limit—it’s just the beginning.
