Written by, produced by & starring Michael Hughes
The Last Bantam tells the story of Britain's Great War 'bantam' soldiers, 30,000 men between 5'-5'3'' who signed up to fight. This story is told through the eyes of Patrick Michael Wolfe, a teacher from Dublin who signs up in 1915 to help secure Home Rule for Ireland.
The action ranges from the city of Dublin to the battlefields of France and is story about patriotism, prejudice, courage and betrayal. The Last Bantam has enjoyed three successful runs in the Edinburgh Fringe and is inspired by real events.
