The Evacuees

18th, 19th & 20th July 2019
Beccles Public Hall & Theatre

‘The Evacuees’ told the story of the mass evacuation of children from towns and cities at the start of the Second World War in 1939. The story centres around Susan, her younger brother Keith and their classmates as they are sent away to live with strangers in the comparative safety of the English countryside. It also revealed how lives would never be the same again for the mothers and other adults who were left behind.

Fully costumed and accompanied by live musicians, this Rising Stars’ show was been scheduled to coincide with the 80th Anniversary of real-life events.
