Project Description

This unique evening of young people’s voices, combined with their musical talent, is to remember and honour all those who lived and worked in our parishes in and around Torrington in 1914 through to 1918. Students from our local schools are drawing on the research done by the Torrington Player Archive team to tell stories of families whose men had gone to the front. The Oh What A Lovely War exhibition of local artefacts and memorabilia will be a backdrop to the performances which will shed light on life in our farms, villages and parishes 100 years ago through the greatest conflict the world had ever known. Also featuring performances by the Devon Teachers Rock Choir and Chulmleigh Belles.
