About

War will impede your brain. Warp your relationships. Crush your body.

But why weren't they warned?

This piece focusses on the impact war has on those who believe it is right to work, fight, or die For Your Country. Through movement, we explore lives shaped by duty, separation and loss.

Memories of normalcy are left on the platform littered with posters. How do mothers exist without their sons; wives without their husbands?

And those that return, return to the platform they left from. Entirely changed.

War is not over. It is still in motion.

Who will be claimed next?

Devised and created by third year BA Drama student production company, Whales in 1945
