Spike Milligan's Adolf Hitler: My Part In His Downfall

Spike Milligan's celebrated war memoirs take to the road in this gloriously absurd and exuberant hit comedy with music, which has had both audiences and critics in stitches. High comedy and tragedy collide, as we follow Gunner Milligan and his jazz quartet, adrift on the tide of great historic events. Using Spike's own words, the show joyously fuses comedy, song and dance, showing how humour, music and comradeship enabled a hapless bunch of young men to prevail against the might of the Nazi War machine. Songs include the jazz greats Chattanooga Choo Choo, Ain't Misbehavin', In the Mood, Honeysuckle Rose, Kalamazoo and many more. Although some of the humour may be a tad too risque for some audience members, most will be enthralled by Spike's funny and amusing take on his pre-Goon Show life. Adapted for the stage by Ben Power and Tim Carroll, and with a barnstorming central performance by Sholto Morgan, this is a must for Milliganites.

We don't have details of any future performances, if you know of some please let us know.
