Chichester: remembering a remarkable earthquake heroine

A remarkable but forgotten 1960s heroine will be brought to the stage in a heartwarming and authentic evocation on south-coast stages.

Down to Chance tells the little-known true story of local radio reporter Genie Chance who courageously kept broadcasting and saved lives in the aftermath of the 1964 Alaskan earthquake, the strongest recorded in North America and the second strongest in the world ever.
