Carrie's War

 

Wyvern Theatre

2 - 4 June 2014

Two performances on Wednesday

 

When the Second World War air raids threaten their safety in the city, Carrie Willow and her brother, Nick are evacuated to a small village in the Welsh countryside.  Billeted with the kind but timid Auntie Lou and her miserly brother, Mr Evans, the children quickly learn that this is a place unlike any they have ever known and begin to discover the joys, and terrors, the countryside possesses. 

 

 

From the whispering woods of Druid’s Grove to the harvest fields, the children get to know and love their new world and the characters that inhabit it; the aging, glamourous Mrs Gotobed, Mr Johnny, who speaks a language all of his own, and Hepzibah Green, the mysterious housekeeper with her tales of magic and wonder and a terrifying curse…

 

Following their hugely popular productions of Blue Remembered Hills and Our Town, Apollo Theatre Company return to Trinity with this brand new production, bringing Nina Bawden’s classic novel to the stage in a feast of story-telling and nostalgia fit for the whole family.
