| Description |
A mixed performance-piece about the abuse and oppression of children...Director Christine Vericel has superb skills in movement and good intentions.
The children and young people in this devised play have nothing, they are adrift in a world where they have to fight for the basic necessities of life...Here the Turk acts with the Black African and there the boy from Port Broughton works with a young actor from Nazareth...They demonstrate to us that talking together and working together, despite our difference, is not only possible but necessary. |
