Forthcoming Theatre Trips:
The Winslow Boy by Terence Rattigan – Salisbury Playhouse
Thursday 5th February 2.30pm performance Tickets £12.00
"Let Right be done"
On the eve of the First World War, cadet Ronnie Winslow is expelled from Osborne Royal Naval College, accused of stealing and cashing a five-shilling postal order. His family's fight to prove their young son's innocence leads to the employment of top QC Sir Robert Morton. But as the legal battle provokes a national outcry which affects the lives of all involved, the price of justice becomes an ever-heavier burden.Inspired by a real case, Rattigan's compelling drama is a deeply moving story of passion and politics. It is directed by the Playhouse's Artistic Director, following his production of Rattigan's In Praise of Love at the Minerva Theatre, Chichester ( "**** Philip Wilson directs the play with the cool objectivity and deep feeling it deserves" Sunday Times, Critic's Choice).
The cast is led by Philip Franks, whose stage appearances include School for Scandal at Salisbury and Journey's End on tour and in the West End.
