Status (Oberon Modern Plays)

Status (Oberon Modern Plays)

by Chris Thorpe (Author), Chris Thorpe (Author)

Synopsis

Status is a show about someone who doesn't want his any more. About running away from the national story you're given. About who is responsible for that story and what might happen to it if you give it up. A globe-spanning journey of attempted escape, with songs along the way. Status springs from conversations about who we might be, and whether your country needs you more than you might need it.
