Post-Mortem by NOEL COWARD with Written in 1930, Coward describes this play as ' an angry little vilification of war '. The Spirit of John Cavan , dying from wounds received in the First World War. jumps forward in time to 1930 to find out if his death and the deaths of so many have been worthwhile. Has the world changed for the better? Has it learnt anything from all those sacrifices?
