The Acedian Pirates
T01463403965
Jacob doesn't know why he's here. He's been at war for six years but nobody will tell him why. They get asked when they sign up what they want to do for the Capital State and they reply 'Fight. Help. Assist. Do some good.' But they've been helping for thousands of years and they're still at war.
The Acedian Pirates looks at the struggles of a unit of soldiers who are desperate to return home but new arrivals puts this in jeopardy. Where are they, who are they and why are they even fighting? As loyalty and friendship conflict with the military necessity for obedience, this production challenges the humanity and logic of military occupation and the jingoism and bluster that defines the armed forces.
