Introduction
Not to be confused with the 1998 movie of the same name, this is about true events which happened to the playwright’s father when entering a RAF hospital ward in 1944. Young pilots of Lancaster aircraft, drawn from all over the Commonwealth, were recovering from a bombing mission and they relived their experiences in dramatic re-enactments. With both humorous and deeply touching moments, this drama brings the terror of flying on a bombing raid into enemy territory graphically to life on stage. Little do the ‘Boys’ know they are always under the watchful eye of the Ward Sister.
