Bin Laden: the One Man Show

Synopsis:
One actor, one monster, one unforgettable act of violence: one headf*ck. the monster we made. We don't believe in monsters, so this is the man. the man that stood up and shook the world. Developed in collaboration with Royal Court young writer Joseph Wilde, this show explores many Bin Ladens: those we know, those we don't, and those we prefer not to. In the face of apathy what makes us act? If we act, what makes a hero? What makes a villain? How far will we go for something we believe in?

written by Joseph Wilde and Tyrell Jones
