I managed to get one of the 12 noon release of return tickets for this sold out show before it closes.
It tells the story of how a community joined together, led largely by left wing socialists and communists to stop fascists from marching through the East End.
The theatre felt a bit cramped and a lot smaller than when I saw Stranger Sings in the same space due to the different seating formation.
Some of the subject areas seemed a bit odd to be singing songs, and most of the small cast played multiple parts covering all sides, which could be a bit confusing. At times it was also hard to hear the words as the music felt louder than the singing.
There were some laughs – I liked the bits where they sang about the headlines across the media (mainstream and non-mainstream) and how the media can at times twist the sane story depending on who owns it.
