“Stop Search”
Event type:Date:
Location: Catford Broadway Theatre, London
“Stop Search” is a new play exploring the issue of stop and search, focusing on the devastating impact the policy can have on individuals and their families.
The play draws on the dramatic tradition of works such as “Sus” and “Cathy Come Home”, which both drew attention to pressing social
justice issues in the 1960s and 70s, and resulted in legislative change.
Produced by the Present Theatre company in association with StopWatch, the stop and search action group, the play is written by Dominic Taylor, who has previously worked as at Brixton Prison and the Ministry of Justice.
The production brings together a talented and experienced international creative team which has previously worked on productions
including Warhorse, Evita, An Ideal Husband and It’s a Wonderful Life.
