Ninety-Nine Years Ago Today...

Ninety-nine years ago today, on the 28th of June 1914, the Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his wife Sophie, Duchess of Hohenberg, were assassinated while touring in Sarajevo by Gavrilo Princip, a member of the Young Bosnia revolutionary movement, and one of a group of assassins organized by the Serbian underground military society The Black Hand. This was the inciting incident in what became the ferocious European power struggle known as The Great War, and later, The First World War.

Archduke Franz Ferdinand and Duchess Sophie of Hohenberg

The First World war ushered in the end of the Imperialist era, shaping the world we see before us today. As the centennial of this great conflict looms ahead, the stage is set for our next project; we will be mounting a play this coming remembrance season that is not only set in the trenches of the Western Front during The Great War, it was written by a soldier who fought there.


Nineteen year old assassin Gavrilo Princip

That is all we are at liberty to say about it for now, but please keep an ear out for a more formal announcement to come soon!

Until next time,
