Voices From Gallipoli

Voices from Gallipoli – a one act play exploring the origins of the Anzac spirit. Written and performed by Mark Wright.

90 minutes of sageness and savagery – humour and hardship that will make you laugh and cry! Mark portrays nine very different characters from that disastrous campaign. From an 18-year-old conscript to an 80 year-old returned serviceman. However this is not a play about “war “it is about the human spirit, endurance and mateship during times of adversity.
