Abstract
Join us for a new piece of verbatim theatre which addresses our soundbite-driven political culture.
A group of actors were brought together by Linda Taylor (Senior Lecturer in Performance, Northumbria University) to ask what mainstream left wing politics can offer working class communities. Their debates have been developed with a range of political enthusiasts including politicians, activists, academics and members of the public.
Follow their thinking as they revisit the points they made from a position of their initial relative ignorance to a more informed view, having discussed the issues. During the performance they will open to the floor for further dialogue with the audience.
