Theatre Royal Youth Present The Railway Children

The Railway Children, 2nd to 4th May

The members of Theatre Royal Youth (TRY), aged 8 to 18, are looking forward to presenting E. Nesbit’s The Railway Children (adapted for the stage by Dave Simpson). This will be the most technically challenging show they have yet undertaken – and is guaranteed to provide great family entertainment.

In this much-loved story, Peter and his two sisters, Phyllis and Roberta (Bobbie), are growing up in a comfortable middle-class home in Edwardian London when their father is suddenly taken away by two strangers and their lives change overnight. With no regular income, their mother is forced to move to a small country cottage and the children are left to their own devices while she concentrates on writing books to support the family. With their poverty comes more freedom than they have ever known and the railway line at the bottom of the garden offers the trio friendships that will change their lives forever.
