Damien Lewis - SAS Great Escapes
For decades Damien Lewis was a leading war correspondent and filmmaker, winning multiple awards for his work in the world’s major conflict zones. But he is best known today for his multimillion selling, wildly loved histories of WWII – including The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, which recently became a blockbuster Guy Richie movie, and other modern classics including SAS Great Escapes and SAS Brothers in Arms.
Now Damien joins us live on stage to share scintillating tales of the SAS at their very finest. From Operation Colossus, the first British airborne raid, culminating in a desperate escape from Italian POW camps, and Private Jack Sillito’s eight-day-march across 180 miles of the Sahara without food or water, to OSS Corporal John Nicolich’s six month odyssey behind enemy lines, where he survived a Nazi manhunt, these are stories of friendship, sacrifice and the unbreakable will to live.
Damien has worked with the family members of those involved, and relying upon unpublished manuscripts, private letters, diaries, war reports and more to share gripping narrative history at its most authentic. Don’t miss a thrilling night with one of the greatest military storytellers of our time.
