The New World Order
|
Chosen for The Guardian's "Pick of the Year" in 2007, this
site-specific Hydrocracker production of four short Harold Pinter plays ran to massive
critical acclaim in Brighton Town Hall as part of that year's Brighton Festival.
The New World Order is an examination of political oppression,
torture, and the mechanics of "what is done in our name."
Now Hydrocracker is developing a second production, with a national tour and London
run, for autumn 2011.
