W5 speaks with Newfoundland's Cassidy Little, an ex-solider and the lead in the British production "The Two Worlds of Charlie F." who describes how he joined the British Army on a dare and served in Afghanistan, losing a leg in the explosion of an improvised explosive device.

"The Two Worlds of Charlie F." was such a success that it had two tours of theatres across England. It was critically acclaimed and won an Amnesty International Award.

Theatre producers in Canada were taking note. Mirvish Productions has invited the play to perform at the enormous 2,000-seat Toronto theatre, the Princess of Wales. On Feb. 25, 2014, the play will begin a two-week run. Starring, of course, Newfoundland’s Cassidy Little.

The Canadian military too has paid attention, becoming a patron of the play. The Chief of Canada’s Defence Staff, Gen. Thomas Lawson, told W5 that the play was not just entertainment, but also therapy for the actors.
