First performed with the RSC, Anton Lesser (Andor, Endeavour) tells Laurie Lee’s extraordinary story, in a 5-star, captivating weave of music and Lee’s own words. 

Adapted from Lee’s Cider With Rosie trilogy, when he famously walked out of the Slad valley one summer morning and ended up fighting with the International Brigades in the Spanish Civil War.

Anton Lesser and Charlie Hamblett (Missing You, Killing Eve) play Lee older and younger, and a rich array of other characters. Featuring breathtaking music, travelling from the Gloucestershire countryside to the arid landscapes of Spain, performed by Orchestra of the Swan, including Spanish guitar.

Presented by Hambletts.
