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.
is needed now More than ever
“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
