Jake's Gift

Jake's Gift Ages 13+ Jake's Gift is an award winning play about a WW2 veteran's journey back to Juno Beach for the 60 year anniversary of D-Day. While there, Jake meets Isabelle, a precocious 10 year old from the local village, whose inquisitive nature and charm challenge the old soldier to confront some long ignored ghosts; most notably, the war-time death of his eldest brother Chester, who was once a promising young musician. At its heart, Jake's Gift is about the importance of remembrance and makes personal the story behind one soldier's grave. Be a witness to history with Jake's Gift.
