Big Brum presents
Siege
An extraordinary new play by Chris Cooper
17th Dec 2007 at 7.30 in the Ron Barber Studio Theatre
Rubble and dust. A room with a shattered window. A door without a wall. Inside a man watches and waits.
“They’ll flatten everything. Paving the way for democracy.”
In the distance a city burns; those who were able to have escaped. A young woman seeks refuge in the ruins. A soldier falters on the relentless march south. The siege is coming to an end and it’s time to pick up the pieces and move on to the next one.
Suitable for audiences aged 13+
