Mikron Theatre are touring Worcestershire with two brand new shows.

Mikron's new shows are All Hands on Deck, which is set in World War Two and navigates a love story between the Royal Navy and their loyal ‘Jenny Wrens', and Redcoats, "which follows Mikron's radiant redcoats as they guide you through 80 years of the Billy Butlin's holiday dream".

A spokesman said: "The two shows are visiting Worcestershire as the company arrive in their 48th year of touring. Always firm favourites; Mikron delight audiences with their informative, dramatic and musically jam-packed and very British themed shows.

"With All Hands on Deck, new WRNS recruits Ginger and Lily are looking for wartime adventure. Lily wants to serve on dry land, but Ginger is desperate to serve at sea - and the sailors can't believe their luck! Our Wrens show pays tribute to all those wartime women who pushed the door to opportunity firmly open. Full of dots, dashes, semaphore and song, Ginger and Lily find themselves in uncharted waters on a journey they'll never forget."

Playwright and former Mikron actor, Vashti Maclachlan, who penned last year's ‘Revolting Women' has had a great time steering the ship on All Hands On Deck.

He added: "It's been a pleasure to write again for Mikron in its 48th year and an honour to shine a spotlight on the tireless women who gave their all to shape a Women's Royal Navy Service fit for the future."

Redcoats is written by Nick Ahad, a playwright, journalist, and broadcaster on BBC Radio Leeds.

He said: "I bet lots of people have happy memories of Butlins. I bet none of them have memories of going to the same Butlins (Skegness) 14 years in a row. I do - and not once did I mind."

Stops on the Mikron tour include The Anchor at Diglis, Springfield Park, Kidderminster, and Raphael's Restaurant, Evesham.
