Synopsis/Cast/Company

Information for The Conquering Hero at Orange Tree Theatre, Outer London (Play). Written in 1923, this play by the author of Mary Broome, which was such a success last year, is set in a military family on the eve of the outbreak of the First World War. As the war approaches, the family is torn by the differing attitudes to the coming conflict. Conscientious objections to war are not easy principles to espouse at such a time and in such a family. 'Those that we call traitors may be the heroes - the men of conscience and ideals. It's my work to look into men's souls. It's truth I want, not this blatant simplicity. We are to be all one now. What a time! The day of the cheap patriot has come.' Running time: Act 1 1hr 5mins, Act II 45mins

Performers Jonathan Christie, Claudia Elmhirst, Julian Forsyth, David Gooderson, Simon Harrison, Chris Heyward, Miranda Keeling, Joan Moon, Jack Sandle. Author Allan Monkhouse. Producer Orange Tree Theatre. Director Auriol Smith. Design Sam Dowson. Lighting John Harris.
