| Description |
STC presents one of the most acclaimed works from Out of Joint and the National Theatre of Great Britain.
The railways have come to be seen as a symbol of Britain. In 1991, the government made a fateful decision: to privatise the railways. Fourteen years later Britain finds itself subsidising the industry more lavishly than ever and dealing with a succession of rail crashes that have scarred the national psyche.
David Hare tells a compelling story through powerful first-hand accounts of those most intimately involved. |
