Poet Laurie Lee was born in 1914 in a small Cotswold village and grew up during a time of change when the rural traditions of past centuries were being swept aside in the path of twentieth-century progress.

​

His autobiography, Cider with Rosie, has become a modern classic both in the U.K. and America.  That very autobiography has been imaginatively, beautifully and creatively adapted for the stage.  This truly is a poetic evocation of Laurie Lee's childhood.

With 24 characters, this play has the opportunity to be a large cast, but with lots of potential for actors to play many parts.
