7 European playwrights. 1 British playwright. 8 new ideas. 8 new forms.
Brexit Stage Left is a festival of staged readings of provocative cutting-edge plays from across the EU. In a Europe that appears to be falling apart, eight playwrights reflect in radical ways on the challenges we all face together.
From a mockumentary play about the rise of the far right to a medieval comedy considering the consequences of living an internet age, this festival brings you the best of new European drama alongside events considering our relationship to Europe in a post-Brexit world.
Playwrights include: Beniamin M. Bukowski (Poland), Gianina Carbunariu (Romania), Eve Leigh (UK), Maria Milisavljevic (Germany), Aleksa Okanovic (Denmark), Fausto Paravidino (Italy), Frederic Sonntag (France), and Saara Turunen (Finland).
