A Soldier's Passion
Dancing Dancing Death! Author(s):
Linda Eisenstein
Musician/Composer(s):
Linda Eisenstein
A Brechtian musical revue about the corrosive effects of war. Based on the work of Siegfried Sassoon, a British army officer who wrote scathing anti-war poetry from the trenches, and later became Britain's most famous conscientious objector.
The material reflects World War I, including its music -- mock-Anglican hymns, ragtime, operetta, music-hall -- but the production evokes war images of many periods.
May be played as a small cast cabaret or a large-cast show with multimedia.
