 The Shadow Factory by Howard Brenton

DIRECTED BY TONY CLARK

 

It is the autumn of 1940, and the precious Spitfire Factory in Southampton has been bombed.  With Churchill and the Air Ministry desperate to restart production a plan is hatched to distribute manufacture around the city taking over various small business premises as

"Shadow Factories".  But will the business owners co-operate?  Can it be done quickly enough? 

 

The story is told largely through the eyes of local families and their communities.  The script is strong and there are some cracking characters to play.   We're looking to be technically ambitious, and we'll need a strong creative team to bring the story to life.  A cast of 13 actors is required, of varying ages, some of whom will play multiple parts as "Chorus".
