ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
This chamber opera focuses on the disastrous Gallipoli campaign and the fate of the Wellington Regiment at Chunuk Bair.
But it’s also the human story Harris and O’Sullivan tell: by giving a voice to the women and families left behind, Brass Poppies becomes a lament for lost and damaged lives.
