The
Sound Of War Music
(March 11, 2010)
War may be hell but it sure can produce some toe-tappingly great
tunes, especially when you're talking about the War to End All
Wars. Soulpepper Theatre is mounting a production of
Oh What a Lovely War,
a satiric anti-war musical first produced in the U.K. in 1963 by
Joan Littlewood's influential Theatre Workshop and featuring
such enduring tunes as "It's a Long Way to Tipperary," "Pack Up
Your Troubles in Your Old Kit Bag" and "Keep the Home Fires
Burning." |
