The Way Plays - Before Trafalgar/Waterloo archiveA unique double bill of two one act plays not performed in the UK for many years. Before Trafalgar - Commemorating the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar, this wonderful one act play by James Lansdale Hodson charts the night before the greatest sea battle in British history on board Nelson's ship. Whilst Nelson plots to discover the most ingenious way to defeat the might of the French, he must also contend with issues closer to hand... Waterloo - A one act play by the creator of Sherlock Holmes. Sergeant Gregory Brewster is the very last survivor of those who fought at the Battle of Waterloo - and is now living in a pitiful situation, penniless and forgotten. When his grand-niece and a local sergeant come to visit, memories of old wounds and friends lost come flooding back... As the last survivors of the First World War pass away, a moving tribute to the forgotten survivors of war... Waterloo was one of the greatest roles of Sir Henry Irving, the first actor to be knighted.
