Theatre
Status
Fringe First-winning solo show from Chris Thorpe and the multi-award-winning team that created Confirmation.
“We all have a nationality. Or almost all of us.
“This is a show about someone who doesn’t want his any more.
“Status takes as its starting point the UK Prime Minister’s assertion that if you believe you are a citizen of the world, you are a citizen of nowhere.
“Drawing on globe-spanning conversations about national identity, and incorporating songs as well as stories, Status is about running away from the national story you’re given and whether that impulse of attempted escape – for those privileged enough to consider it – is a useful one, or a rejection of responsibility open only to the few.”
Oct 11-12, 7.30pm, from £12. 80 mins, ages 14+. For more info, visit www.tobaccofactorytheatres.com/shows/status
