The Last Bantam

7th March 2026

Tom Thumb Theatre

A story inspired by real events, written and performed by Michael Hughes at Margate's Tom Thumb Theatre

2pm - 3.30pm

1914. The Great War rages. Britain recruits 30,000 'bantams', men between 5'-5'3'' to fight.

1918. One Bantam remains, Patrick Michael Wolfe, a teacher from Dublin.

This is his story, a story about patriotism, prejudice, courage and betrayal.

The Last Bantam has completed its third successful run at the Edinburgh Fringe, and we could think of no better place to stage a show about Britain's smallest soldiers than in one of Britain's smallest theatres!
