Description

M6 (16,17, 21, 22, 50). Various simple settings. Period 1930s, 1946

Naomi Wallace has skilfully transformed William Wharton's novel into a compelling, intimate piece of theatre. This is the journey of Birdy and his friend Al who are seen both as young men in Philadelphia in the years just before World War Two and as wounded soldiers bearing the mental and physical scars of war. "... ingeniously conveys the essence of the book's attraction." Evening Standard
