Soldiers is a play about Winston Churchill.[1]
The play was highly controversial because it alleged that Winston Churchill was responsible for the death of the Polish Prime Minister, General Władysław Sikorski, in an airplane crash in 1943. The play was meant to premiere at Britain's National Theatre in 1967 but this was cancelled and the play was produced instead on the West End with John Colicos as Churchill.
