Set in pre and world war II years. The play covers the true events that lead to the creation of an art group in ashlington not far from newcastle in the scouts and guides hut. The play successfully explores the social norms of the day and ideas around class, nationalisation, unionisation, community, the meaning of art and how art can be inclusive and how money can make it exclusive at the same time.
Hosted at the Duchess theatre. Its spartan architecture suits this play. But otherwise possibly the dreariest theatre I have been to in London.
