Chiltern Players

Albert Make us Laugh


Albert Make Us Laugh was played uncut with doubling and staging as suggested by the author Jimmie Chinn. The children's roles were also played by adults which was another suggestion of the author.


The action of the play takes place in and around Belmont Fields Secondary Modern School and the home of Albert Nuttall in the late 1940s/early 1950s.
