Synopsis

Drama Characters: 2 males Set Requirements: Unit set "Dulce et decorum est/Pro patria mori," facetiously penned British poet Wilfred Owen, who was soon to die in the Great War.

It is sweet and fitting to die for one's country.

This moving play is about the poetic life and the inter relationship between two of the finest Great War poets: Owen who died and Siegfried Sasson who didn't.

Told by means of letters and poetry, Not About Heroes paints a vivid picture of the war.

It was staged to great acclaim at the Williamstown Theatre Festival and had an Off Broadway run.
