Kisses On A Postcard
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kisses On A Postcard is a stage musical written by Terence Frisby with music by Gordon Clyde, John Altman and others based on Frisby's experiences as an evacuee, or 'vacky', during WWII. When he was just 7 and his brother Jack was 11, they were sent from their family in South East London to a small village in Cornwall to escape German bombing during The Battle Of Britain. They were two of over three and a half million children evacuated from cities in Britain, the largest migration of people in UK history.
The musical began life as the radio play Just Remember Two Things: It's Not Fair And Don't Be Late, which was broadcast on BBC Radio 4 and on BBC World Service. It won Frisby the Gilles Cooper Award for Best Radio Play in 1988.
The musical was premiered at The Queen's Theatre in Barnstaple in 2004 under the title Just Remember Two Things
