THE STORY: HEART OF A CITY is both a comic and heroic commentary on theater people in a small London playhouse during the blitzkrieg and reveals the courage of ordinary people in war time. A semi-professional theater company includes: Judy, who remains happy and defiant during the blitz and who loves Tommy, the songwriter; Rosalind, who is pretty and lovestricken the night she meets Paul Lundy at an RAF concert; Tommy, who wants to marry Rosalind and can’t see Judy and doesn’t care much about life after Rosalind meets Paul.
“HEART OF A CITY is affectingly real. It is real in feeling and in dialogue, and it manages to be at the same time funny and moving and full of unobvious excitements.” —New York Sun.
