Devon Youth Theatre presents 'Blackouts, Bobbies and Bombs'
Devon Youth Theatre’s production of Blackouts, Bobbies, and Bombs will be performed in Exmouth, Okehampton and Exeter on 19-21 February 2010. This project is an exciting, new collaboration between Daisi and the Devon and Cornwall Police Heritage and Learning Resource. Featuring an original script by Artistic Director Jon Croose, Blackouts, Bobbies and Bombs follows the lives of two Devon policemen between the hours of 6am and midnight on one day in 1940. Based on the true-life WW2 experiences of local people and serving police officers, the story follows their attempts to catch some of the region’s most infamous wartime criminals, while also dealing with air raids, evacuation and the everyday lives of ordinary people. Tickets are £5-£3 (depending on venue). Book tickets through Daisi by calling 01392 385214 or email admin@daisi.org.uk.
