Private Peaceful

Start time: 7.30pm

Joshua Beaumont and Matthew Emeny for The Production Garden in association with Exeter Northcott present Private Peaceful Based on the novel by Michael Morpurgo Adapted and Directed by Simon Reade After captivating audiences worldwide, Private Peaceful returns to the stage with fresh energy and timeless power. From Michael Morpurgo — beloved author of  War Horse — comes the unforgettable story of Tommo Peaceful. On the eve of battle, Tommo looks back over the events that shaped his life: the warmth of family, the innocence of first love, and the deep bond with his brother that carries him through the horrors of war. In this acclaimed one-person tour de force, adapted and directed by Simon Reade, a single actor conjures an entire world of characters, landscapes, and emotions. At once heartwarming and heartbreaking, Private Peaceful is both a moving family drama and a powerful reminder of the human cost of war. Lauded across the globe as an international smash hit, this production now embarks on a bold new chapter. One man. One story. One unmissable night of theatre.
