WIN 2 Tickets to see 306:The Dawn

Be in with a chance of winning 2 tickets to see the powerful and poignant 306:The Dawn.

This competition opens on Monday 16th May 2016

 

The 306: Dawn is a unique and powerful piece of music theatre from the National Theatre of Scotland.

Based on real events, it charts the heartbreaking journey of Joseph Byers (17), Private Harry Farr (25) and Lance-Sergeant Joseph Willie Stones (24) three of the three hundred and six British soldiers who were executed for cowardice, desertion and mutiny during World War I (1914-18).

With a contemporary score performed live by the Red Note Ensemble, the songs explore the vulnerability and devastation of the battlefields, alongside the inner struggles of the men. Poignant and powerful. 

Join them, as they explore the lives of these soldiers - who appear on no war memorials - and give them back their voices, stories and names. Age guide 14+

The 306: Dawn will be performed in a transformed barn at Dalcrue Farm, Pitcairngreen in the Perthshire countryside. You will be picked up from Perth Concert Hall prior to the performance.
