Between 1905 and 1925 thousands of women made life-changing decisions. They travelled to the great western prairies of Canada to meet and marry complete strangers.

Mail Order Annie is a brilliant stage play, paying tribute to the ladies who arrived in search of adventure, romance, homes and families. These brave women helped shape the future of a nation. Local director Sandra McLay and a talented cast will entertain two audiences as they present the adventure of one young bride as she passes through a rural prairie railway station in 1923.
