In my quest to seek out the best in fringe theatre, I’ve yet to make it to the Above the Stag.   I think I will give it a go with Bluebirds, a musical which follows a plucky troupe of volunteers, amidst the Blitz,  defying Hitler to keep their ENSA song and dance show running.

But while it is all smiles and fun for the audience, the real drama is backstage as the war changes everyone’s lives forever.
Packed with wartime classics including Chattanooga Choo Choo, Accentuate The Positive, Every Time We Say Goodbye, Lili Marlene, A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square and the inevitable White Cliffs of Dover, BlueBirds is a heartwarming story of courage and finding love where you least expect it.
