Joplin Little Theatre has announced its next production, All Quiet on the Western Front, by Robert Waterhouse, based on the novel by Erick Maria Remarque. The production is being directed by Tegan Whited.
In October 1918, a month before the end of World War I, Paul Baumer is shot and killed by a sniper on the western front. He is the last of his classmates to fall in a war that will destroy many in his generation and disillusion those who remain.
All Quiet on the Western Front chronicles Paul's observations of life and death in the mud and trenches and the impossibility of returning to civilian life and living in hell. Paul, Muller, Kat and Kropp are all brought briefly to life in this adaption of one of the great anti-war classics of the 20th Century.
