SCOTTISH PREMIERE

This collection of short plays audaciously explores the power of the arts in today's global conflicts, political resistance and displays of artistic freedom.

A collection of political plays arrives at the International Festival with a fresh wave of urgency. Following a sell-out debut at London’s Arcola Theatre, Cutting the Tightrope dives into the ever-tightening grip of censorship on artistic freedom. This is an audacious exploration of the role of the arts in today’s global oppression and resistance.

Written by a dynamic roster of playwrights, the pieces cut to the heart of contemporary struggles – from war zones to the silencing of dissent. Praised as ‘powerful, important, moving’ by Ben Jamal, Director of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign, the show unflinchingly challenges the silencing of expression.

Expect an evening of daring, thought-provoking theatre that refuses to shy away from the truth. These voices demand to be heard.
