Spike Milligan’s celebrated war memoirs take to the road once more in this gloriously absurd and exuberant hit comedy 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. Using Milligan’s own words, the show joyously fuses comedy, song and dance; showing 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 and many more.

Contains strong language.
