Capture the Flag

by Toby Schmitz

Berlin. 1945. Three young boys huddle for days in the sewers as the Russian tanks rumble through the streets above. Karl and Albert are both members of the Hitler Youth - desperate to become men before their time. Herret is desperate to get back to his mother, his indoctrination not as complete as his companions. The rules of their favourite game have changed and now the bullets are real.

Award-winning playwright and director Toby Schmitz's new Australian play is a gripping, intelligent and unlikely story that sees coming of age meet historical apocalypse in a unique and immersive theatrical experience.
