Something for everyone in military musical comedy at Leamington theatre
Set in 1948 against the background of the ‘Malayan Emergency’, the play charts the adventures of the SADUSEA (Song and Dance Unit South East Asia), a British concert party who entertained troops engaged in keeping 5,000 Chinese communist guerillas at bay.
Steven Flowers, a naïve young private, joins the group and falls under the spell of the only female member of the troop, Sylvia Morgan. But the young recruits soon find themselves thrust into genuine danger.

Hide AdDirector Steve Smith said: “Having appeared in Privates on Parade a number of years ago, I know what a great show it is. With outrageous comedy, instantly appealing music, a wide range of interesting characters and a serious and thoughtprovoking heart, there’s something in it for everyone.”
The play, which runs from Wednesday (July 9) to Saturday July 19, contains scenes of nudity and strong language throughout. The performance on July 10 has been pre-booked for a charity evening. For tickets, call 0844 493 4938 or visit www.lofttheatre.co.uk
