“Never has this incredible story had more to offer and we wanted to find a way to share it at this time, 104 years to the day since the first day of one of the most terrible battles in British history.”
Sebastian Faulks’s masterpiece Birdsong will be released online in a brand new specially made production. With a star cast including Max Bowden, Stephen Boxer, Tom Kay, Madeleine Knight and Tim Treloar and narration by Sebastian Faulks himself, this uniquely made production marks a one of a kind special event to mark the 104th anniversary of The Battle of The Somme. Told using video technology, live performance, sound design and music all woven together to create a unique portrayal of one of the greatest love stories in modern literature. Birdsong Online is directed by Alastair Whatley and Charlotte Peters and will be raising money for The Royal British Legion.
