Book Synopsis 946 : The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips by : Michael Morpurgo

Download or read book 946 : The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips written by Michael Morpurgo. This book was released on 2016-08-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine being told to leave your home... Imagine American soldiers occupying your house and land... Imagine being 12 and angry, with only a cat to tell your secrets to... Well it all happened (most of it anyway) in Slapton Sands, Devon, in 1944. Based on Michael Morpurgo’s The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips, this play explodes everything we thought we knew about the D-Day landings. With signature Kneehigh sorcery, 946 uses music, puppetry and foolishness to tell this tale of war, prejudice and love. Tender, political and surprisingly romantic, this story speaks to us all and will finally reveal the secrets the US and British governments tried to keep quiet.
