Dennis Potter explores the joy and anguish of childhood in this poignant and humorous drama where the children are played by adults. Performed by the Summer Theatre Company.  Set in a rural idyll in 1943, the cruel games of the children provide a stark contrast to their tranquil surroundings. Potter's timeless masterpiece delves into themes of morality and human nature, performed in the Barn Theatre at Smallhythe Place.
