  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."
