Set at the outbreak of the Second World War, this is the funny, moving story of the invasion of a Somerset village by child evacuees from London - the Vackees - and their adventures with the (at first) hostile native children. The musical centres around a young London lad, Kip, and follows his first experiences of love and war. With a memorable score by TV and film composer Carl Davis, this evocative musical, with many big production numbers, offers great scope for a large cast.
