The 100 Years' War - A Poetry In Performance Show

The chaos and cruelty of war has inspired wonderful poetry. The Hundred Years’ War is a new poetry-theatre piece that uses forty poems composed around war from 1914 to 2013 as the basis for a deeply moving portrayal of our lives under fire. Three performers, live and recorded music and striking images are all combined to create a heart-wrenching drama whose every word is charged with poetry.

This piece is a partnership between Bloodaxe Books, Midland Creative Projects and the Belgrade Theatre Coventry and follows their acclaimed show Being Human, described as “Pioneering work… an amazing theatrical experience.
