WORCESTER-based Vamos Theatre Company, the UK’s leading full mask theatre company, return to The Courtyard in Hereford with a heart-warming wartime tale of bravery and love.
Nursing Lives is a love story set in the early 1980s of Thatcher’s Britain, and takes us back to the hard-working, heart-breaking, swing-dancing world of the UK’s wartime hospitals. When Flo, a feisty 70-something, learns that the hospital she trained at during the Second World War is being demolished, she decides to take one last look, and stop the bulldozers in their tracks.
Her illicit visit becomes a personal celebration of friendship, courage, adventure and romance. But is what Flo remembers really the truth, or is history ready to be rewritten?
If you thought that expression and emotion were hidden behind a mask, Nursing Lives will change your mind for ever in a moving and wonderfully inventive way.
Nursing Lives will be at The Courtyard tomorrow at 7.30pm. To book, call 01432 340555 or visit courtyard.org.uk
