946: THE AMAZING STORY OF ADOLPHUS TIPS

Special Events, Theater

Kneehigh in association with Birmingham Repertory Theatre and Berkeley Repertory Theatre present

ABOUT THE SHOW


Imagine being twelve and having soldiers occupying your house and land, with only your cat to tell your secrets. 

Kneehigh Theatre, who wowed audiences at The Wallis with Brief Encounter, return with 946, which was originally produced by our new Artistic Director Paul Crewes. Kneehigh’s signature sorcery of music, puppetry and foolishness will transport us to Slapton Sands, England in 1944. Based on the beloved book by War Horse author Michael Morpurgo, 946 explodes everything we thought we knew about the D-Day landings in this tender tale of love and war.
