Wassail Theatre present: Whispering Willows

It’s 1929.  Morris has been planting, harvesting, basket making and drinking tea on his Somerset Willow farm since before he can remember.

Every year the same pattern repeats itself.  Plant, harvest, weave.  Plant, harvest, weave.   

One day he pulls up a particularly large piece of Willow with a girl clinging to the end of it!  She eats too much, breaks everything in his workshop and is a complete nuisance.  But as time moves on, they teach each other the ways of the Willow.  That is until the threat of WW2 looms and an even bigger enemy arrives - plastic!

Free and no ticket required. Donation collection after the performance
