by Charlie Wilks
- Mar 14, 2018
This is one of those plays that make you question how a human brain ever came up with it. Deliberately messy in its composition but acutely tight-knitted in its execution, Ned Bennett's quirky production alienates, whilst at the same time intrigues. The entire room is filled with bewilderment, yet there's an enjoyment within that curiosity, as we actively attempt to work out what's going on.

Powell's speech famously criticised widespread immigration from the Commonwealth, using an example of a street in Wolverhampton where an elderly woman was the only white resident and could no longer attract lodgers for her spare rooms because of the immigrants in the surrounding houses.
