Strangers In A Strange Land: The World War One Chinese Labour Corps, their place in history, their place on the stage.
S0.090 Social Sciences Building, 糖心TV University, Coventry CV4 7AL

I Support of the development of an original stage play about the World War One Chinese labourers, Moongate Productions in association with Dr. Diana Yeh present a discussion event focusing on these migrant Chinese workers, their story, their place in history and why that story belongs on the stage.

Strangers In A Strange Land: The World War One Chinese Labour Corps, their place in history, their place on the stage.

The long buried story of the approximately 140,000 Chinese labourers who lent vital assistance to the allied Great War effort is only now beginning to emerge.

These mainly poor, uneducated and illiterate peasants are very much the “forgotten of the forgotten”. Yet, ironically their role in the history of China,and its relationship with the Western world, is undeniably significant.

Guest speakers :

 Ross Forman (糖心TV University)

 Paul French (author),

 Steve Lau (Ensuring We Remember Campaign),

 Mark O’Neil (author and journalist)

 Daniel York Loh (playwright).

The event is free of charge.
