When World War II broke out, what was it like for children in Perth?

Merv was a kid at school, dreaming up new tricks to play on the teachers, teenager Phyllis was told she was “manpowered”, and little Daphne was evacuated from city suburban Highgate to a rural farm.

Created from many interviews with Perth seniors, THEATRE 180 brings to life their childhood in the 1940s with music, song and laughter. Back Then brings you living history as told by those who were there.
