Keep Smiling Through

Work:: Keep Smiling Through (S1374443894)

Keswick, 1940 - Britain is at war with Germany. Maggie's life is under invasion too: Gran knitting for England, evacuee lodgers, helping with the war effort - and now a fund-raising concert party! Husband Rob is due home on RAF leave and best friend Peg has just learnt that she's pregnant - but no such luck for Maggie and Rob... Nostalgia, romance, laughter and tears all feature in this comedy world première from the adapter of the hugely successful The Maid of Buttermere, full of live music, songs and dance from the war years.
