By Laurie Lee
Adapted by Nick Darke
It is the summer of 1918, and the end of the war sees the young Laurie Lee moving to a new home in a Cotswold village. Life here is peaceful, slow and governed by the seasons. It is a child’s paradise, until that is, our hero meets Cabbage Stump Charlie, Jones’ Goat and the tantalising temptation of supping cider with Rosie Burdock.
Nick Darke’s dramatic and humorous stage adaptation, brings to life this heart warming tale, in a not to be missed ensemble production of Laurie Lee’s Cider with Rosie.
