Beyond the Fence in pictures
Production images have been released of Beyond the Fence ahead of the upcoming opening night at the Arts Theatre.
Directed by Luke Sheppard, the cast includes CJ Johnson as Mary, Ako Mitchell as Meadows and Laura Jane Matthewson as Helen.
The unique production has been created following a statistical study of the recipe for success in hit musicals. Experts from Cambridge University looked at aspects of musicals from cast size to backdrop to emotional structure and several premises were generated by the What-If Machine at Goldsmiths, University of London.
The show tells the story of Mary and her daughter at Greenham Common peace camp in 1982. Committed to stopping the arrival of US cruise missiles, Mary must face the possibility of losing her child to the authorities, when US Airman Jim Meadow becomes an unlikely ally.
Beyond the Fence runs at the Arts Theatre until 5 March.
