Laburnum Grove by J B Priestley

Odeon Theatre, Taunton, 10th – 12th May, 1943.
The programme declares: ‘Bishops Lydeard Dramatic Society present The Taunton Thespians in Laburnum Grove.’ Curious. All the takings from Laburnum Grove went to the war effort, under the bold heading: “Taunton’s Aim: A Hundred Spitfires – Half a Million Pounds”
