All of the Violence in the World
Drama ranging over the centuries as three teenagers find themselves unwittingly recruited as foot soldiers in three very different ideological wars. By Jonathan Holloway.
Jonathan Holloway's challenging new play for radio focuses on the child soldiers used as cannon fodder in ideological wars over the centuries. Three teenagers fall into the clutches of the mysterious and chameleon-like Teacher as the story cuts between the People's Crusade of 1096, the days of the Hitler Youth in Nazi Germany and the streets of south-west London in 2007.
