The Riots (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Gillian Slovo | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

The Government has so far refused a Public Inquiry into the riots that shook our cities this Summer, so the Tricycle is mounting its own.

This verbatim play builds a real-time picture of the riots as they unfolded. And then, from interviews with politicians, police, teachers, lawyers, community leaders, as well as victims and on-lookers, The Riots analyses what happened, why it happened, and what we should do towards making a better future for ourselves and our city. Astonishing stories and equally astonishing conclusions told by the many voices that have been stirred up by the riots.

“Skillful, illuminating insight… this is important, pertinent theatre” – The Stage

“A thought-provoking and admirably even-handed play on the subject.” – The Telegraph

“A taut, illuminating two-hour show… makes you think without making your mind up for you.” – Independent
