Not About Heroes by Stephen Macdonald

What passing bells for those who die as cattle? Beginning with their awkward first encounter at the Craiglockhart Hospital for Nervous Disorders, this moving drama charts the growth of an intense relationship between the confident, upper class Siegfried Sassoon and the stuttering, provincial Wilfred Owen. Weaving dialogue from their letters with their celebrated poetry, it elegantly pieces together the mysteries of this most unlikely friendship. In this WW1 centenary year, Frome Drama Club’s eloquent and touching play remembers those who fell and those who survived hell between 1914 and 1918.
