A
History Play (manufactured, distorted and used....)
inviting
the audience into a world of disintegrating facts, shifting maps,
and multiple versions of events... where Truth is constantly rewritten
classroom/
briefing/ battlefield/ inquiry
where
myths and gossip scratch
a
poppy-field of innocence and guilt, individual and nation;
an
intimate exploration of power and accountability.
And
a teacher in crisis, plagued by dreams of colonising minds,
obsessed
with the elusive nature of fact,
increasingly
unable to say anything.
The
history lesson will begin...
