Our Public House: Election Onstage and Off

Whilst the country builds up to a general election, we’re in the
midst of creating Our Public House, Dash
Arts’ state-of-the-nation theatre production.


Hear from Artistic Director Josephine Burton and
playwright Barney Norris on how our play weaves
together the ideas and speeches of over 150 voices from across
England and the ever shifting political landscape. Plus catch us
in the rehearsal room at Theatre Royal Stratford
East, performing some of the draft script and songs on
stage at HOME in Manchester and in a
speech-making workshop with Manchester Deaf
Centre as we reflect on the long research and
development process behind a Dash Arts
production. 


Our Public House is funded by Arts and Humanities Research
Council (AHRC), Arts Council England, The Thistle Trust, Three
Monkies Trust, and individual giving.
