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.
