About this listen
1930, London Theatre Land.
Charley has grown up behind the curtain in London's West End; she has even begun taking a turn on stage. But her dreams of being a performer are shattered when she is sent off to boarding school, a place where the girls are forced to do unpaid work in order to fill the pockets of the owners.
When she discovers that her theatre home is in peril, Charley decides to escape, and make a dangerous journey along the coast in order to get back to – and save – all that she loves.

'A glorious kaleidoscope of a story, with the most brilliant ensemble cast of characters fighting for their futures in Jazz Age London. Judith Eagle is one of my most favourite writers. She is the absolute queen of cosy adventures.' (Emma Carroll, bestselling, award-winning author of Letters to the Lighthouse)
'A gripping pacey read bursting with star-quality – I absolutely adored it!' (Jasbinder Bilan author of Asha & The Spirit Bird and Tamarind & The Star Of Ishta)
'This book is a comfort and a joy. With shades of Nesbit and Streatfeild, but with a style all of its own, The Great Theatre Rescue is dramatic, gorgeously written and full of adventure and excitement. I felt like a child again when I read it, which I think is the highest compliment for reading a children's book as a grown up.' (Katya Balen, author of The Space We're In)
