This is an introduction to a musical theatre project inspired by a true Australian story of mateship.
Growing up in Melbourne, Ben and Adam discover that both their great uncles fought in the First World War, but on opposing sides. They decide to ÔintroduceÕ them to each other thus beginning the odyssey. This story is not about shame or embarrassment, it is about identity and building better understanding while examining the Great War through a contemporary perspective.
Currently being developed by Theatre Ma‰t (Belgium) and Theater Kontra Punkt (Germany), the Ivan and Rudolf production will debut late 2014.
