Written by Andrew Rattenbury (The Golden Hour, Doc Martin, The Tempest of Lyme), this new play was commissioned and developed at the Marine Theatre in Lyme Regis, and tells the story of the Monmouth Rebellion of 1685. It was first performed along the seafront in Lyme Regis and at the Marine Theatre in July 2017 by a 50-strong community cast aged between 8-80.
With funding from Arts Council England the show completed a 6 week South West tour to theatres in Dorset, Devon and Somerset in Autumn 2017, produced by BurntOut Theatre. A 20-strong cast of actor-musicians told this South West story with original live music, song and film projection.
