Jack stayed on when the guns fell silent, to search the battlefields for the boys that could not go home - for the dead and the missing, for both enemy and friend. Amongst the rusty wire and unexploded bombs Jack is looking for something – looking for someone. He has a promise to keep and a debt to repay, and now there is this strange request from the generals.

The Unknown Soldier is moving, often humorous, but above all thought provoking. A story of comradeship, betrayal and of promises both broken and kept following the carnage of World War One. A new theatre piece by the award nominated writer of 'Casualties'.

"Strong writing, an original approach and a sensitive performance bring fresh power to a reminder of the horrors of war" - The Stage

"It’s not about glory or futility, it’s about the loyalty forged between friends"- The Scotsman
