Winner of the 2012 Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievment In An Affiliate Theatre.A world away from you, but a world right on your doorstep.A powerful story of the terrifying complexities of sex trafficking today based on real experiences. Moving away from generalised narrative accounts of trafficked women, this explosive, site-specific production combines direct, chilling performances with video and animation. Roadkill exposes the brutal and hidden truth behind the newspaper headlines as audiences share in the intimate, harrowing details of a young woman trapped in a living nightmare.‘It’s uncomfortable, vivid, nauseating and induces fist-clenching anger. But it’s also brilliant, sobering, frank, very moving, and, unfortunately, a real snippet of British society’ – What’s On Stage ‘Brutal and compelling’ – Evening Standard ‘Immersive theatre at its most powerful’ 4 stars – Financial Times
Rites
Rites is a powerful and provocative production exploring the deep-rooted cultural practice of Female Genital Mutilation. This ritual of enforced cutting has been performed for centuries and millions of girls worldwide, often as young as five years old, are still subjected to it. The reasons are complicated and myriad. It depends who you are, and it depends what you’ve been taught. Some things are simple though: FGM is still happening across the world. FGM is happening in the UK, here and now.
