About the show

To coincide with Armed Forces Weekend, we open the 1940s songbook and remember the stars who kept us smiling through our darkest days.

Spirit of the Blitz recaptures the tenacious optimism of war-torn Britain on the long road towards peace, paying tribute to our heroes through the music of their era.

Sing along to swinging hits like Don’t Sit Under The Apple Tree, Bless ‘Em All, Leaning On A Lamp-Post, and of course, We’ll Meet Again.

Starring Andy Eastwood, Helen Farrell and Steve Barclay, this feel-good show recreates all your forties favourites, including Vera Lynn, George Formby, Max Miller, Arthur Askey, Anne Shelton and Gracie Fields.

For those who remember the 40s, the show is a trip down memory lane; for those who don’t, it’s a Sentimental Journey back through time to
the glorious melodies and good clean comedy that accompanied a dogged nation’s battle for survival.
Remember a generation of loved ones in the uplifting style that most reflects their resilient spirit.

This unmissable performance is devised and produced by Andy Eastwood, with musical direction by Wendy Richardson.

Why not bring a party to commemorate and celebrate with us?

Please note that the artists appearing may be subject to change.
