Blackeyed Theatre's critically acclaimed Oh What a Lovely War comes to Lichfield Garrick Theatre.
A cornerstone of modern musical theatre and one of the very greatest stage satires, Oh What a Lovely War delights and shocks in equal measure, bringing home the realities of war to audiences across the UK. Now, more than ever, it holds a mirror up to the world and speaks to us all.
Conceived and developed by Joan Littlewood and her Theatre Workshop in 1963, Oh What a Lovely War remains a classic of modern theatre, a fusion of timeless songs – including Pack Up Your Troubles and It’s a Long Way to Tipperary – razor-sharp satire and high jinks, offering a joyously scathing account of the First World War. Wildly satirical, visually stunning, and deeply moving, the show is a hilarious, heart-breaking snapshot of life for those caught in the crossfire of conflict, a unanimous voice from the trenches and a timely warning from the theatre of war itself.
