946: The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips
Adapted by Michael Morpurgo and Emma Rice
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.
"A wonderfully life-affirming piece of theatre... touchingly and gloriously imaginative" - The Times
