Winslow Boy

09-04-2018 to 14-04-2018

About:

Having been expelled from the Royal Navy College for stealing a five-shilling postal order, young cadet Ronnie Winslow's entire family are pulled apart by the repercussions of this charge. Set against the values of 1910 Edwardian London, the Winslow Family fight to clear his name or face social ostracism as the case becomes a national scandal.

Based on a real-life event, The Winslow Boy is a courageous and often delicately humorous window into the class and political hypocrisy of the time.

'Masterful Rattigan puts press and politicians in the dock' The Guardian

This gripping masterpiece play is engrossing for Rattigan lovers or new-comers alike. A highly-charged moral drama that will have you gripped by the heart-tugging decisions facing each member of the Winslow Family. Where will their sacrifices leave them and what is really at stake?

An outstanding literary master who's plays include; Flare Path, The Browning Version, The Deep Blue Sea and French Without Tears.

Also starring Timothy Watson, who is best known for the role of Rob Titchener in BBC Radio 4's The Archers.
