The play about the life of Great War poet Wilfred Owen makes a return to Liverpool’s St Georges Hall in March, after its first performance in October 2014 played to a large and appreciative audience.

A Dream Of Wilfred Owen by David Charters will be staged in the Concert Room of the iconic building on March 13.

Known as the soldiers’ poet, the story will be told from the perspective of Wilfred’s ghost who will take the audience on a journey back to the time of World War One.

The story follows real and imagined events in Owen’s life, from growing up in Birkenhead where his father, Tom, was master of the busy Woodside railway station, to his own war experiences in the trenches.
