Theatresque

With a salute to both the great Hollywood musicals and classic British cinema of the 1940s and 50s, we step back in time to the summer of 1943, with the arrival of one US army unit and its impact on the lives of a small community in rural England.

During WW2 over 1.5 million US army soldiers arrived in Britain to prepare for the Second Front and the allied invasion of Normandy.

The first GIs landed on Britain's shores in 1942 and brought with them candy, Coca-Cola, cigarettes, nylons and the Jitterbug! With high wages and buckets of charm the “Yanks” won over hearts and minds to form friendships and find love that would last a lifetime.

A memorable score and live band brings you fun packed comedy numbers, heart rending ballads and foot stomping dance routines. A nostalgic micro-musical with epic heart!
