Torn between army politics and the love of his soldiers on the front line, a legendary leader spirals out of control.

Inspired by Sophocles' classical play, Our Ajax draws on interviews with contemporary servicemen and women to create a modern epic of heroism, love and homeland.

Timberlake Wertenbaker's Our Ajax premiered at the Southwark Playhouse, London, in November 2014.
