Bomber's Moon Transfers to Trafalgar 2

Former RAF gunner Jimmy finds his routine disrupted when sensitive care assistant David arrives – and his cantankerous outlook and colourful language seem to be more than David can handle. As Jimmy increasingly snaps back to the adrenaline-fuelled terror of his WWII bombing raids, and David’s new found faith is tested to breaking point, both men discover that a lasting peace is not easily won. With acerbic wit and searing honesty, Bomber's Moon is a bittersweet tour-de-force, full of gritty realism and razor-sharp humour.

The play by William Ivory will star James Bolam ( New Tricks, Born and Bred, The Likely Lads, When The Boat Comes In) and Steve John Shepherd (EastEnders, This Life).

Bomber's Moon will be directed by Matt Aston, designed by Laura McEwen, choreography by Emma Annetts, lighting design by James Farncombe, and sound design by Damian Coldwell.

Bombers Moon plays at Trafalgar Studios 2 from 20 April - 23 May 2015.  Click here for ticketing information.
