| Description |
An epic and elaborate theatre work in two parts: Part One "The Cruel River", Part Two "Origins and Destinies". The production combines an intricate mosaic of voices of asylum seekers lamenting cultures and countries left behind with evocative sounds and vivid imagery to give a human face to the plight of those forced to leave their homes in search of a better life. |
