The Big Ship Sails
The Big Ship Sails is an emotional play about the British child migration scheme of the 1940s and 1950s. Powerful as a performance, the play is an excellent resource for investigating real events of recent British history from the perspective of those involved. It also allows children the opportunity to include singing, mime and tableaux, and to perform in non-speaking roles.
