A Red Petticoat Day!
Keighley Playhouse goes all nostalgic in their celebration of the anniversary of The Railway Children.
The story of is over 100 years old and it’s 40 years ago the famous film starring Dinah Sheriden, Bernard Cribbins and Jenny Agutter was released.
The Keighley Playhouse production of The Railway Children is as captivating as it was all those years ago. When their father is escorted from their comfortable London home, Roberta, Phyllis and Peter have to move with their mother to a remote cottage in Yorkshire, close to the railway line. Fascinated, they wave to the passengers faithfully every day and through their various adventures they become friendly with Mr Perks, the station porter and eventually with the elderly gentleman who waves to them from his train each morning.
Eventually their vigilance and courage prevent an accident and in return for their kindness they make friends of some important people who can help solve the mystery of their missing father.
