Mettle

Award-winning solo performer Nicholas Collett tells the story of his father’s service during the Atlantic Convoys of World War Two. A true odyssey, that takes us from Sheffield to Liverpool to Nova Scotia, Boston to West Africa and home again, amidst the constant threat of U-Boat attack and treacherous weather.

Physical theatre and storytelling, with a dramatic soundscape and 40’s music, this is a tribute to those who served, those who were lost – and those who lived to tell their story. In association with the Daparian Foundation – committed to those on trauma journeys, supporting veterans and blue lights personnel.Written and performed by Nicholas Collett and directed by Gavin Robertson.
