19, 20 and 21 March
Annabel’s
Wednesday at 16:20
Thursday & Friday at 19:00

This year’s Lower School production is the moving and atmospheric play Private Peaceful based on Michael Morpurgo’s celebrated book.

The Peaceful brothers, Tommo and Charlie, have a tough rural childhood facing the death of their father, financial hardship and a cruel landlord. Their fierce loyalty to each other pulls them through, until one day they both fall for the same girl. And then the Great War comes. We join 18-year-old Private Tommo

Peaceful in the trenches as he tells us a story of courage, devotion and sibling rivalry on what may be his last night on earth.

This is a free event, no booking required, just come along and enjoy!
