A TOWN NAMED WAR BOY
Based on the State Library of NSW’s jaw-dropping collection of First World War diaries, photographs and letters. A Town Called War Boy brings to life the personal accounts of the young men and women that set sail for the far side of the world. Their exploits are our history. Their sacrifices are the stories we grow up with: the ANZAC legend.
Featuring original music by multi-award winning composer Steve Francis
“Corfield’s design team- set designer Adrienn Lord, lighting designer Emma Lockhart- Wilson, sound designer- Alistair Wallace and composer- Steve Francis- very effectively creates the play’s dark, frightening, living on one’s nerves world.”
