‘I was only a little wren’ is based on a conversation that I had with a woman called Beryl Morris. She had an amazing life especially during World War 2, when she was based on the Isle of White. I became interested in her story and the way we form our memories and identity around storytelling. I wanted to explore the layers of our identities by taking the viewer from the third person to the first person through the text, echoed with this idea of veiling her image.
