Friend or Foe? Voices from World War One

On 11, Feb 2016 | In Events | By Nicola Gauld

For spring 2016, FRED presents a new production: Friend or Foe?

Friend or Foe? presents authentic voices from the First World War. Three one-act plays, all written during the conflict, each passionate and exposing raw emotions and deeply held convictions. Yet, each tells a very different story, and reveals the range of attitudes the war evoked at the time.

These powerful plays demonstrate the playwrights of the war have a voice which was equal in strength to that of the poets, challenging perceived ideas of manhood, womanhood, social order and authority.

The cast of FRED’s production, directed by Peter Malin, is: Nathan Blyth, Emmeline Braefield, Mollie Fyfe Taylor, Charlie Ives, James Parsons, Peter M. Smith, and Barbara Treen.
