A play based on real life events during the Battle of the Somme is set for the Millennium Forum Theatre this November for one night only.

Divided by History United by Music is a tale of two men who are worlds apart yet live strikingly similar lives.

The play portrays the story of John Love and James Downey two men, one from the Fountain and the other from Longtower both fighting in the battle of the Somme but for very different reasons.

The play is written by Jonathan Burgess with new music commissioned by Noel Barr.

It has a cast of over 100.

Tickets are available at the Millennium Forum from £10.
