About

Come along for a bowl of soup and a show at lunchtime!

Based on real archival records, "Tommy Atkins and The Canary Girl" focuses on the lives and experiences of workers at the Gloucester munitions factory and local soldiers during the First World War. This powerful, emotional and sometimes funny performance looks at the hardships endured by soldiers in the trenches and the largely untold story of the changes to the lives of the women at home in "Blighty". Special performance for Remembrance Day.

Performances are suitable for ages 11 and over. Each £10 ticket includes a bowl of soup or equivalent light lunch, and the event is designed to fit into an hour-long lunch break. Doors open at 12:45 and food is served from 1pm.
