Swallows and Amazons

All aboard The Swallow! Follow Captain John and his able crew as they set sail to Wildcat Island on an exotic adventure to encounter savages, capture dastardly pirates and defeat mortal enemies.

An action-packed musical adventure for the whole family, Swallows and Amazons is a story of an idyllic era, of endless summer evenings and the beauty of youthful imagination. This delightful and gloriously imaginative production was directed by Tom Morris, who also co-directed the international smash hit War Horse, and written by Helen Edmundson, writer of the National Theatre’s astonishing Coram Boy, with music by Neil Hannon from the The Divine Comedy.

Swallows and Amazons was co-produced with Bristol Old Vic Theatre, presented at London’s Vaudeville Theatre by the National Theatre and subsequently delighted audiences around the UK for 17 weeks.
