Summary, etc. |
Helen Edmundson's stage adaptation of Arthur Ransome's 1930 novel, Swallows and Amazons, with songs by Neil Hannon, was first performed at the Bristol Old Vic on 1 December 2010. The stage version begins in the attic of an old house, where Titty, an old woman, comes across some old photographs while dusting. As the photographs spring into life, and the duster is transformed into a parrot called Polly, Titty is transported to the Lake District in the summer of 1929 to relive the adventures of her childhood along with John, Susan and Roger; Nancy and Peggy, the self-proclaimed Amazon Pirates; and the dastardly Captain Flint. 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. |
