FAILED STATES

24th October to 12th November

Inspired by The Trial, FAILED STATES projects Kafka's nightmare scenario into a country fixated by the threat of suicide bombers and the promise of a war on terror, control orders and counter-terrorism. It follows the journey of Joseph, an American businessman in London, as he is arrested for terrorist offences he claims he did not commit. An inventive mix of song, humour and highly topical themes. FAILED STATES can't help but leave you highly entertained.

A new musical co-written by Des O'Connor (1996), featuring himself and also Gareth Mullen (1999).

Superb....An original and enjoyable evening... O'Connor's music is very impressive" (4 stars)
