A powerful and emotional flashback experience based on the Great War, Echoes of the First World War. Frank Carlyle will guide visitors through the depths of the hall revealing Liverpool stories of the First World War. The historical talks will be interlinked with promenade performance by some of Liverpool's best-loved actors. Sound effects, special lighting, projections and poetry along with 6 actors in period costume will create a unique interactive experience.
Echoes of the First World War is part of the Hall's own programme of events which take place throughout this centenary anniversary year of the start of the Great War in 1914. Promenade performance will explore the lives of some of the soldiers and heroic winners of the Victoria Cross - William Ratcliffe, John Davies and Noel Chavasse and how these men, under extreme adverse war conditions, won the highest military honour bestowed upon them. It will also look at how in the trenches soldiers had to endure rats, lice, cockroaches, trench foot as well as enduring the elements.
