Harleston Players

Book cover - smallIn April 2016, we will be performing a musical version of Terry Pratchett’s bestselling story, Johnny and the Bomb.

When young Johnny Maxwell and his friends Kirsty, Wobbler, Bigmac and Yo-less are transported back in time to 1941 (by a time-travelling shopping trolley), they find themselves in the thick of World War II. Can they save their street from a catastrophe which they know is just around the corner? Who is the mysterious Sir John, and why does he employ ‘Men in Black’? And will they all get safely back to the present?

This a fun, fast-paced musical from the same team that created The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents, with loads of great characters and craziness. We’re planning to have an initial read-through of the play at 7.30pm on Wednesday 3rd February in the main hall at Archbishop Sancroft High School, with Tuesday and Friday rehearsals starting on Friday 12th February. Performances will take place on 15th and 16th April. If you’re aged between 9 and 15 and would like to be involved, please contact Mike Davison.
