‘The persecution of people because of their sexual orientation is every bit as unjust as that crime against humanity, apartheid. We must all be allowed to love with honour.’ Archbishop Desmond Tutu
DV8's Artistic Director Lloyd Newson leads a multi-ethnic cast in a poetic but unflinching exploration of tolerance, intolerance, religion and sexuality. DV8’s new show is based on hundreds of hours of audio interviews collected throughout the UK with people directly affected by these issues.
DV8 Physical Theatre was formed in 1986 and twenty years on it still refuses to be defined. Combining dance, text, documentary, animation and film, the company has produced 15 theatre works which have toured internationally, and 4 films which have won awards including 3 Prix Italias, an International Emmy and a Rose D’or.
