Notes: | Original Playwright - Nikolai Khalezin | |||||
Synopsis: | An autobiographical monologue performed by its writer, the ponytailed Nikolai Khalezin, it starts amiably enough by reminding us that bootleggedjeans and records are both a symbol of defiance and a source of illicit trade in a repressive system. In a line that might have come out of Stoppard's Rock 'n' Roll, he says of his generation, "We wanted to know everything about Mick Jagger and nothing about the Communist party." With skill and subtlety, Khalezin goes on to describe his own arrest after a demonstration in 1998. He describes his claustrophobic horror at being placed in an 8Ox8Ocm cell, and how the experience was made even worse by the fact that he had recently fallen in love. Played against a seamless background of pop music, controlled by an on-stage DJ, Khalezin's testimony is as honest about himself as it is unsparing in its description of the degredations of confinement.. | |||||

Notes: | devised and performed by Belarus Free Theatre; written by Nicolai Khalezin and Natalia Kaliada | |||||
Banned from performing in their own country, Belarus Free Theatre serve up food, music, dance and Shakespeare as they share true stories from inmates, executioners, human rights lawyers and families of the executed. This provocative and urgent play pierces the imagination with moments of the darkest humour as it challenges capital punishment in our contemporary world, where 95 countries still carry out the death penalty. | ||||||
