Details

Presenting 40 extraordinary poems chosen from The Hundred Years' War, three performers fuse theatre, live music and striking imagery to create a deeply moving portrayal of life under fire. The production offers stories of war from across the world, from the trenches of the Somme to the horrors of the Second World War, the Holocaust, the Middle East, Vietnam, Ireland, the Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan. Voices of all nations and creeds are represented, often from opposing sides. Each poem is performed before the audience learn its history, which war it came from and its country of origin. The effect is visceral, heart-breaking and thought provoking.
