In Memoriam John Littlewood, Theatre Impresario
So. Farewell Then Joan Littlewood.
With your Famous cap Set at a Jaunty angle On your head
You were the Face of British Theatre in the Sixties.
Now the Curtain has Come down
And fings Ain't wot They used To be.
E. J. Thribb (17½)

Synopsis: | Oh What a Lovely War is a theatrical chronicle of the First World War, told through the songs and documents of the period. First performed by Joan Littlewood's Theatre Workshop at the Theatre Royal, Stratford East, London in 1963, it received the acclaim of London audiences and critics. It won the Grand Prix of the Theatre des Nations festival in Paris that year and has gone on to become a classic of the modern theatre. In 1969 a film version was made which extended the play's popular success. The play is now on the standard reading list of schools and universities around the UK and was revived by the Royal National Theatre in 1998. | |||||
