'Blighty (1914-1918)' is a historical anti-war stage play perfect for schools and colleges wanting to engage students with the issue of war.

August 1914: Germany declares war. The British military recruitment drive for World War 1 swings into action. Young women begin to shame the young men who don't join up. Moving to the trenches, the play portrays the reality for those caught up in the terrible conflict, from the ordinary soldier, to volunteer nurses, to the officers faced with an impossible task of winning a few yards of territory on the battlefield. Getting home-leave to Blighty is the only respite for war-weary young British soldiers who long to escape from the horrors of war.
