Goodnight Mister Tom

This uplifting story is being staged at Bridgnorth’s Theatre on the Steps between 22 June and 1 July.

Set during the dark and dangerous build-up to WW2, the classic tale follows sad young William Beech, who is evacuated to the idyllic English countryside and builds a remarkable and moving friendship with the elderly recluse Tom Oakley. All seems perfect until William is summoned by his mother back to London. This is a tale of two broken souls at very different ends of the age scale, celebrating the value of love and proving that friendship knows no barriers.

Tickets are priced £9 to £12 and are available from 01746 766477 or visit www.theatreonthesteps.co.uk
