Geneva Convention
Brighton Fringe 2024
My play Geneva Convention will get its official full premiere at The Lantern Theatre, Brighton, from 27th-29th May 2024 as part of Brighton Fringe Festival, with further follow-up dates in Brighton and Lewes during June. Geneva Convention is a highly experimental work in four parts, corresponding to the four conventions: Wounded & Sick / Maritime / Prisoners of War / Civilians. The play explores the psychological/existential impacts of war - on those who are involved and those who are not involved.

“The existence of terror in society (whether in the form of torture, arbitrary imprisonment, kidnapping or disappearances) has harmful effects which are not limited to the potential or actual victims. Rather it functions much like a fragmentation bomb, damaging or at least threatening everything in the surrounding area.” (Marcelo Vinar, from the book 'Civilization and Torture')
"Because whatever has happened to humanity, whatever is currently happening to humanity, it is happening to all of us. No matter how hidden the cruelty, no matter how far off the screams of pain and terror, we live in one world." (Alice Walker)
“Brilliant. Thought-provoking, raw, provocative, multi-dimensional; use of music, space, silence …" (Audience Feedback from previews)
