Global Citizenship Trip to the National Theatre

At the beginning of March 2009 a group of Global Citizenship undergraduates and staff went along to the National Theatre to see the play 'England People Very Nice' by Richard Bean.

The play deals with issues of immigration, racism, relationships and violence over a historical period of 400 years in Bethnal Green, London. The play has, since it's opening, sparked a large amount of controversy and debate in parts of the UK media, centring on the question of whether it is, rather than chellenging them, pandering to, or promoting, racial stereotypes.  So what better play to go and see some of the  issues that cut to the core of the Global Citizenship Programme live on stage?

Photos and reviews will be posted up very soon!
