FIRST LOOK: It Is Easy To Be Dead, Trafalgar Studios

It Is Easy To Be Dead, a play by Neil McPherson, based on the letters, poetry and brief life of Charles Hamilton Sorley transfers to Trafalgar Studios 2 after  a critically acclaimed sell-out run at the Finborough Theatre opening on Armistice Day – Friday 11 November 2016.

When twenty-year-old Charles Sorley is killed in action during the First World War, his devastated parents are left with only his letters and poems to remember him by. Using his extraordinary writings, together with music and songs of the period, It Is Easy To Be Dead is a tender portrait of a brief life filled with promise, cut short by the futility of war.

It Is Easy To Be Dead features live music and songs from some of the greatest composers of the period including George Butterworth, Dòmhnall Ruadh Chorùna, Ivor Gurney, John Ireland, Rudi Stephan and Ralph Vaughan Williams.

It Is Easy To Be Dead runs at Trafalgar Studios 2 until 3 December 2016. Enjoy these great images by Scott Rylander. It Is Easy To Be Dead is produced by Bréon Rydell.
