Not About Heroes

Past event at Pleasance Dome

Wed 02 Aug

Entry from £6

Stephen Macdonald's Fringe First-winning play about the unique friendship between celebrated WWI poets Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon. They met at Craiglockhart Hospital in 1917 and bonded over a mutual hatred of war and love of poetry. This production won a Best Actor accolade at the Wales Theatre Awards and is embarking on a world tour, commemorating the centenary of both the meeting depicted in the play and of the Armistice. 'Recreates the Great War as tangibly as if the theatre had filled with the smoke and stench of the battlefield. Compelling and superbly performed' (BritishTheatreGuide.info).
