Dear Mr Kaiser.

Performed at the Divadlo Inspirace as part of the Prague Fringe. Previews at City University.


​In 1916 Captain Robert Campbell, a captured British officer, learnt that his mother was dying of cancer. Desperate to escape, he took the unlikely step of writing to his enemy-in-chief: Kaiser Wilhelm II.

 

Against all odds he received a reply and the offer of two weeks compassionate leave, on the sole condition that he promised to return. Campbell faced a harrowing dilemma: To keep his honour as a gentleman or to do his duty as a son?
