As we near the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of the First World War, it is apt that one of cinemas and theatres greatest satires is brought back to the public’s attention. Oh what a lovely War is one of those plays that demands attention and the respect for all those who take part in such a sensitive subject.

Every so often a production comes along that when all is said and done is nothing short of charming and brilliantly executed. Nothing more, nothing less! Arthur Ransome’s classic children’s adventure Swallows and Amazons is one such play.
