England
There is a play running in England called “England People Very Nice” and it is not the best, apparently. Obviously, I’m not in England, but I’ve been looking into this show to see what it’s about, and is seems to be very interesting. The show is about immigration in the UK and it deals with the topic in a somewhat flippant way. There is a play-within-a-play about the lives of immigrants, which the immigrants have put together during the 6 months they’ve been held, waiting for immigration and asylum claims to be worked through. It’s a confusing concept and it would be better if it were a little quieter and a little bit more toned down generally. More subtlety would have been much better.
