Trees to climb, squirrels to chase, a whole forest to explore… The Forest of Dean, 1943. Dennis Potter’s play recounts the activities of seven West Country 7 year olds on a summer’s afternoon playing in the woods and fields of Gloucestershire. But it’s not all fun and games when around every corner could be an escaped prisoner of war, a German parachutist, or an angry farmer! The children are all played by adult actors and they swagger, fight, fantasise and play in a way which reflects relationships in the adult world.
"...a shocking - and moving - masterpiece" The Guardian
