Is British Theatre Too Insular?

I'm on a panel at the Finborough Theatre this Saturday with Clare Finburgh (great French theatre expert) and Mona Becker (dramaturg and thinker), asking whether British theatre - and playwriting specifically - is too insular and parochial, compared to the more internationally-minded French and German theatres. The panel will be chaired by Elizabeth Kuti and will follow her play, Fishskin Trousers (pictured), which has been getting great reviews, so I'm looking forward to seeing that too.

Tickets are free if you're seeing the sow or £5 if you're not.

The answer, of course, is yes and no, but I'll try to be a bit more punchy on the day...

You may be here because you’ve come across a book, or play, or article of mine and you want to know more. Maybe you’re a student or a colleague or a friend or an acquaintance and you want to find out more about me. Maybe you are gathering ammunition for a vicious ad hominem attack that will expose me for the charlatan that I am.  

If so, you’ve come to the right place. Feel free to get in touch.
