A solitary World War I-era soldier stands in a poppy field watching comrades advance toward a rising sun.

Picnic on a Battlefield

 – 

Fernando Arrabal’s Picnic on a Battlefield is a darkly comic and absurdist anti-war play, using humour and the ridiculous to explore the human cost and senselessness of conflict. The performance will be accompanied by a special ‘Dad’s Army’ piano bar, with live music and favourite tunes from yesteryear before the show.

A special Gala Performance will also raise funds for Royal British Veterans Enterprise and Chelsea Theatre. Tickets include a champagne reception in the bar beforehand.
