Epitaph

Honour their spirit

Epitaph

This new museum theatre piece captures the emotional struggle for Australian families at the end of the First World War as they faced the task of writing an epitaph for their loved ones buried in foreign lands.

Written by Ross Mueller, ‘Epitaph’ is a collaboration between the Australian War Memorial and The Street Theatre. Actor Kristian Jenkins will be performing the piece regularly in the Memorial’s galleries beginning on 12 October 2018. 

The production is 14 minutes in length and free to attend.
