Alice Diamond and the Forty Elephants

With her notorious gang-leader brother heading off to WW1, Alice Diamond seizes her chance to take his place and stamp her mark on the streets of London.

Together with her all-female crime syndicate, Alice rules the city as queen of the criminal underworld. But when the war ends – and the men return home – she isn't ready to give up her newfound status without a fight.

Sibling rivalry ensues in this Peaky Blinders-style romp, based on unbelievable real-life events. The 'superbly multi-talented' (Scotsman) Young Pleasance return with another large-scale, high-energy show.
