Don't mention the War

 

This staged reading is a trio of three short plays by Copenhagen-based playwright Ben Hamilton. As a mixture of comedy, drama and political satire “Don’t mention the War” is a thought-provoking analysis and ironic commentary on the highly relevant theme of War in Europe – most particularly Brexit and its impact and significance in the context of Europe and the European Union. Using a past-present-and-future timeline, the audience meets three couples in intimate settings and explores how a country’s quest for a brighter future resulted in self-destruction.

Staged with originally composed and live performed music by Mashti Project.
