Political Theatre is important - stunning theatre deserves an audience

The International Committee for Artists' Freedom (ICAF) of Equity campaigns on behalf of overseas artists facing oppression and emergency aid situations.  Since its formation ICAF has taken up the cause of artists from many countries around the world facing hardship, censorship, exile, persecution, imprisonment, torture or even death.  Each case is assessed individually, impartially and apolitically and all decisions are based purely on professional and humanitarian considerations. 

This week the Belarus Free Theatre company, who are championed by ICAF, is performing at the Sherman and, on Friday and Saturday nights at Chapter, the Notional Theatre production of Fragments of Ash is supporting a collection for ICAF.

Whether you are a citizen or a subject just imagine what your world would be like if artists in Wales were persecuted. 

Minsk 2011 is at the Sherman tonight 

Fragments of Ash is at Chapter on Friday and Saturday June 1st and 2nd 

Book now - and bring coins. Let's fill the bucket with pictures of the queen. That's the way to start a jubilee.
