In times of conflict we often think of the people involved and effected, but have you ever stopped to think about what happens to the animals in war-torn countries?
This August, to mark the centenary of the First World War, local theatre company Action Transport Theatre and their Young Actors Company will explore exactly that in new show, The Zoo which will take place around the Overpool Road on August 2nd and August 3rd at 2pm and 7pm.
Set in an abandoned zoo in a war-zone city, the play follows five children as they attempt to keep themselves, and the starving zoo animals alive.
