Hope. Love. Survival. What happens when the unimaginable becomes reality?

A quiet life is turned upside down when an elderly British couple prepares for an impending nuclear strike. Armed with only government survival pamphlets and unwavering optimism, they face the horrors of war with a heartbreaking mix of love, humor and denial.

This critically acclaimed adaptation of Raymond Briggs' classic graphic novel is a deeply moving, darkly humorous, and eerily relevant story about resilience in the face of catastrophe.

Why you should see it:

  • a gripping and emotional theatre experience that will stay with you long after the final bow
  • a blend of satire and tragedy, offering moments of both laughter and heartbreak
  • stunning, intimate performances by Adrian Rice and Simone Kiefer, directed by David Tynan
