South Australian writer, Lane Hinchcliffe, has written a new musical, The Front, which will be launched “in time for the Centenary Commemorations of ANZAC and the First World War”.
One of the songs from the musical, The Somme, was selected to be played at an Anzac Day dawn service on 25th April 2013 in Adelaide, South Australia.
According to a press release from The Front, the song “reflects the horror and fear experienced by so many brave young men as they waited for the command to climb over the sandbags and into the Battle of Fromelles, on the banks of The Somme”.
