An intriguing new theatre production to mark the 100th anniversary of the First World War.
During the Great War, Talbot House in Poperinge, Belgium, a few short miles behind the front line, became a haven for thousands of allied troops - a 'home from home' where they enjoyed some home comforts and remembered the men that they really were.
Run by a diminutive chaplain named Tubby Clayton the house became known by its army signaller's code of 'Toc H' and ultimately would be the inspiration for the association with that name.
This play, written by Peter Gill, recreates the humour, music and wonderful atmosphere of this inspirational house.
