Description
The Peaceful brothers face a harsh rural childhood, marked by hardship and cruelty. Their bond is tested when they both fall for the same girl, but it's the outbreak of war that truly puts their loyalty to the test. In this powerful story, 18-year-old Private Tommo Peaceful recounts his experiences in the trenches, where he struggles to find courage and devotion in a conflict he doesn't fully understand. A poignant tale of sibling rivalry and sacrifice, Private Peaceful is a moving portrayal of war's impact on young lives. Commissioned by Nottingham Playhouse, this new ensemble version brings a fresh perspective to Michael Morpurgo's acclaimed novel.
