What I Gave, I Have by Catherine Frid

John McCrae was a Canadian physician, soldier and poet who penned “In Flanders Fields,” the famous World War I poem.

In What I Gave, I Have one actor plays Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae and six other characters in a play that explores new insights into McCrae’s life, loves, poetry and the battlefield trauma that irrevocably changed him and contributed to his death in France in 1918.
