AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Sydney Theatre Company embarks on an historic partnership with the Australian Defence Force to present a major new work, 'The Long Way Home', in Sydney and on an extensive national tour. Capturing the stories of servicemen and women, in particular those who have sustained wounds, injury or illness as a result of service, the new play reflects experiences on operations in Iraq, Afghanistan and East Timor as well as humanitarian and disaster relief and protecting Australia’s borders. Director Stephen Rayne and multi-award-winning writer Daniel Keene shape a powerful piece of theatre featuring servicemen and women alongside professional actors for a truly unique theatre story of national significance, in the centenary year of the start of the Great War.'
