Spike Milligan's - Adolf Hitler: My Part In His Downfall
Adapted for the stage by Ben Power and Tim Carroll
Spike Milligan’s celebrated war memoirs take to the road once more in this gloriously absurd and exuberant hit comedy drama, which has had both audiences and critics in stitches. High comedy and tragedy collide, as we follow Gunner Milligan and his jazz quartet, adrift on the tide of great historic events, discovering how humour, music and comradeship enabled a hapless bunch of young men to prevail against the might of the Nazi War machine Songs include the jazz greats Chattanooga Choo Choo, Ain’t Misbehavin’, In the Mood, Honeysuckle Rose, Kalamazooand many more.
“A joyously funny, gloriously ramshackle evening”
The Guardian ****
