Accomplished Theatre

Playing before an almost capacity audience, the New Zealand Theatre's production of 'Oh What A Lovely War' presented fast-moving and polished theatre.

Originally produced by the Downstage Theatre Cafe in Wellington, it is a show in which comedy predominates but only thinly veils, the irony and tragedy of war.

An innovation in the show was the use of rear projection of pictures from the Great War to emphasise points in the show. The projectionist is Garry Wood.
