Jenny Wicks Jenny trained at the University of Birmingham and the Conservatoire de Limoges, France. Jenny Wren Productions was established in 2004 and Jenny has directed every Jenny Wren show to date, with casts of many different sizes, and often playing multiple roles, but none quite like Little Women. The idea came about during the first lockdown and has certainly kept Jenny and Hannah’s spirits up since then!
