All That I Have Lost – War in Poetry, Prose and Theatre

All That I Have Lost – War in Poetry, Prose and Theatre, created by The Colorado Shakespeare Festival’s Ray Kemble, reveals how poets, dramatists, and writers have reflected the human experience of war down through the ages. “We begin with Troy, and end with Baghdad,” says Kemble, “thirty-three centuries of the same old madness.” Insisting Lost is apolitical, Kemble notes that many people “confuse repugnance for war with being unpatriotic” but hopes that when it comes to “war, famine, pestilence, death [and] the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse […] it would be all right for people of all political persuasions to shun these.” Lynn Nichols directs.

There is no performance on Sunday, October 8.
