What Did You Do In the War, Mama? is set in 1917 when the powers of Europe are locked in a lethal war. Casualty numbers are enormous. There seems no way out of the stalemate. One evening, King George V and his advisers, including Prime Minister David Lloyd George, Army Commander of British Douglas Haig, and Munitions Minister, Winston Churchill are poisoned at dinner. Seriously ill, the men can no longer work and it falls to Queen Consort, Mary, to find a solution to this dangerous situation. And the question then becomes - what would happen if women ruled the world?
