Strange meetings: An evening of War Poetry with Mario Petrucci, Southbank Centre

August 6, 2014 @ 8:00 pm

Mario Petrucci guides us on an unexpected journey through the poetry of WW1 and WW2.

The World Wars represent crucial turning points for our civilisation. Mario Petrucci introduces us anew to those war poets we have come to admire but also, just as poignantly, to those of immense influence who are now long forgotten.

Utilising original recordings and live recitation, Petrucci conveys the poets’ messages directly, generating a powerful and intimate experience of war poetry.
