Theatre: Dread Zeppelin.......



Red Rose Chain youth theatre presents an explosive new show packed with local WW1 history, drama, terror, espionage and romance… Bet you never knew so much had gone on in sleepy old Ipswich!


Researched by our young people with historian Mandy Rawlins, Dread Zeppelin is a brand new history play written by Joanna Carrick to mark the Centenary. Supported by Heritage Lottery Fund and starring a 26-strong cast!

=========================================

I cannot praise this performance enough, yes I'm a little biased as my granddaughter R had one of the lead roles!
A large cast of wonderful individual characters, singing, dancing, accordion playing and a script all based on real life local events in WWII. They totally deserved the standing ovation.

This is the review they got in our local newspaper.......

I especially wish we lived near enough to make seeing this one. The review is fantastic - it should be a case of being named and framed.

Their four performances were so well reviewed and talked about they will be putting on another two performances quite soon.
