Frome Musical Theatre Company’s award-winning youth group ‘Spellbound’ are pleased to present Lionel Bart’s musical ‘BLITZ!’ this summer at the Frome Memorial Theatre.
The company says, “This year our country remembers the outbreak of World War II 80 years ago and commemorates the 75-year anniversary of the liberation brought by the D-Day Landings. Let our young cast take you on a trip back to the Homefront of wartime London and into the lives of the families on Petticoat Lane.
“The story centres on the relationship between a Jewish family, the Blitzteins, and a cockney family, the Lockes, in 1940s’ East End London. Mrs. Blitztein and Alfie Locke work at adjacent market stalls and can’t stand each other. As Hitler’s bombing intensifies, their teenage children, Carol and Georgie, fall in love. Will Mrs. Blitztein and Alfie be able to bury the hatchet and become friends?
“Book your tickets now for a trip back in time full of nostalgic music, song and dance!
“‘BLITZ!’ will be performed at the Frome Memorial Theatre from Thursday 8th to Saturday 10th August. Evening performances at 7pm with an additional matinee at 2pm on Saturday 10th. Tickets are £12, concessions £11, under 16s £9.”
The Memorial Theatre box office is open Monday – Saturday 9.30 – 1pm. Call 462795 or visit www.fmt.website.
