47 - Oh What a lovely War
Manage episode 415611624 series 2794708
What happens when three historians watch a key play about the First World War?
This month we took a field trip to see Oh What A Lovely War at the Leeds Playhouse. As a result we discuss the nature of the performance, the changing image of Douglas Haig, and wonder whether audiences were supposed to sing along.
