Double Bill of two short new plays.
Paddy Hitler by Kieran Cooke
This new play looks at the often tortured life of Paddy Hitler, son of Hitler’s elder half-brother and an Irish mother: as WWII approaches Britain is desperate to win Paddy over to its side.
An Innocuous Prick by Ian Cox
The second play focuses on local rows, riots and politics as compulsory smallpox inoculations are introduced in the late C19 and the impact on the small Oxfordshire town of Charlbury.
