Bantam Productions

20 June 2026

1914. The Great War rages. Britain recruits 30,000 Bantams, men between 5ft and 5ft3 to fight.

1918. A group of reporters visit the Front to write about the Bantams. One Bantam remains - Patrick Michael Wolfe, a Dubliner who signs up to get Home Rule for Ireland. This is his story. A story about patriotism, prejudice, courage and betrayal. Inspired by real events.

20 minute Q&A with playwright and actor Michael Hughes after the show.
