We co-produced Only the Brave with Soho Theatre, Daniel Sparrow Productions and Birdsong Productions with a cast of Welsh musical stars led by Caroline Sheen and David Thaxton.

Only the Brave, recounts the raw courage and determination of those who fought and felt the physical and emotional pain of the Second World War.

It tells the story of a group of brave soldiers embarking on a dangerous mission that holds the key to the success of the D-Day Landings.

This rousing and original musical interweaves the soldier’s stories with that of their families and loved ones.

Based on true events, Only The Brave evokes the camaraderie and bravery of the second world war generation.
