Dilated Theatre Company Presents FOR KING AND COUNTRY
by Stephi Wild - Mar 28, 2018


John Wilson's military courtroom drama will be seen in London for the first time in half a century this summer to mark the centenary of the end of the First World War. For King and Country follows a soldier's court martial for desertion and the struggle of his defending officer to acquit the young man in the face of bureaucracy and his own naive honesty.
