Flash, Bang, Wallop The writing team behind the stage version of Mary Poppins reunite to update this classic musical.
Arthur Kipps an orphan is an overworked draper's assistant at Shalfords Bazaar Folkestone at the turn of the last century.
He is a charming but ordinary young man who along with his fellow apprentices dreams of a better and more fulfilling world but he likes his fun just like any other except not quite. When Kipps unexpectedly inherits a fortune that propels him into high society it confuses everything he thought he knew about life.
Watching him wrestle with his new identity is his childhood companion and not quite girlfriend, Ann Pornick who sees with dismay how Arthur is being made over in a new image by the beautiful and classy Helen Walsingham.
She is always there with helpful hints on how Arthur could improve himself and make his life richer and more meaningful if only he would believe in himself and listen to her.
Both of these young women love Arthur there is no doubt about that but which should he listen to? With the help of his friends Arthur learns that if you want to have the chance of living the right life you need to make the right choices.
This new stage version of Half A Sixpence which returns to the H. G. Wells semi autobiographical novel Kipps in order to reinvent the musical Half a Sixpence for the modern age and with this modern company what better way to enjoy this delightful love story with such great songs as Flash Bang Wallop What a Picture and Half A Sixpence to get your feet tapping
