Description
What does the lead singer of an Irish rock band know about World War I? Well, as it would turn out, quite a lot. Ken Fitzsimmons from The Kissers joins host Bianca Martin to discuss an innovative Veterans Day event on the Barrymore Theatre stage by the multi-discipline troupe Mobilize The Poets. “The Foe And The Fallen: Stories from The Greatest War” blends rock and roll with multimedia to tell the stories of Wisconsinites from World War I, aiming to build connections across time. Ken shares insights into the show's format, the power of music in storytelling, and the Great War’s impact in Wisconsin.
