Idle Motion

During World War Two, the grounds of Bletchley Park housed some of Britain’s greatest minds. Alongside Alan Turing and Gordon Welchman, thousands of gifted men and women lived and worked together in this eccentric country house.

Decades later, as Bletchley’s secrets begin to be revealed, another group of ground breaking volunteers gather to save the home of the Enigma code breakers.

Using personal testimony, multimedia and inventive staging, this is an insightful, innovative and immersive celebration of the people whose hidden heroism changed the course of history.

Includes a post show talk.

“It’s a measure of the confidence of a theatre company such as Idle Motion [that this] production achieves all it does, and then some, with theatrical panache…Exhilarating theatre” British Theatre Guide, “A brilliant emerging company" Lyn Gardner, The Guardian.
