Design by David McSeveney. The play will run before evening performances of Unreachable in the Jerwood Theatre Downstairs.

“You western backed goats,

They forced us into slavery and killed millions.

Now they want us to accept the sinfulness of homos.

It shall not work.”

This short, startling play looks at what lies behind it.
