Using a raucous combination of physical theatre, live music and clowning, Scratchworks will unfold the untold tale of the four feisty forgotten females from the Great Train Robbery.

In the early hours of Thursday 8 August 1963, the heist of the century is under way. Signals are scrambled, phone lines cut and millions of pounds of cash stolen. Five days later the first clues are found, the gang is busted and the rest is history. But what about the ones that got away?

Using a raucous combination of physical theatre, live music and clowning, Scratchworks will unfold the untold tale of the four feisty forgotten females from the Great Train Robbery, as they leave behind their kitchen-sink lives and embark on a madcap adventure of mischief and mayhem.

Scratchworks is an award-winning theatre ensemble from Exeter who create playful, accessible theatre, from scratch. We received the VAULT ‘Festival Spirit Award’ and were nominated for IYAF Best of Brighton Fringe Award for Great Train Robbery in 2017.

“Inventive, intelligent physical theatre…a raucous manipulation of the 20th century’s greatest heist” – Theatre Bubble

“This is a great show that can be enjoyed by all the family – and you might even learn something on the way.” – Broadway Baby
