THE FOE AND THE FALLEN
Stories from The Greatest War
Featuring
THE KISSERS
November 11, 2025, 7pm
$50 Gold Circle
$35 General Admission
Barrymore Theatre, Madison, WI
Based on the music of the award-winning album The Foe and the Fallen: Songs from The Greatest War (The Kissers, 2024), this multimedia “rock and roll history show” celebrates the lives of everyday Wisconsinites who lived during one of our nation’s most extraordinary times. They each did their bit in different ways. They served, they worked, they resisted; and did so with a passion and resilience that resonates still today.
This performance is a redux version of The Greatest War: World War One, Wisconsin, and Why It Still Matters which debuted in 2018 to a sold out audience at the Barrymore Theatre in Madison, Wisconsin.
“Moving. Enlightening. Rocking. Important.”
-Andy Moore, Former Senior News Producer, PBS Wisconsin (about The Greatest War)
