A pub theatre in Earl's Court turns into a Quaker Meeting House for Naomi Wallace and Marcus Rediker's intriguing play The Return of Benjamin Lay, which takes the true story of a farmer, sailor, and abolitionist who stands just 4 feet tall and makes his passion for equality universal.
The Return of Benjamin Lay has its origins in protest. We were scheduled to give a plenary lecture at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin on the theme, “What Comes after Nations?”. We decided to end our talk by having an actor dressed as Benjamin Lay come onto the stage to disrupt the proceedings by challenging the audience about their complicity with inequality and oppression.
The world premiere of The Return of Benjamin Lay will bring to life the revolutionary mind and the remarkable tale of an utterly impossible man, for a limited four-week run at the Finborough Theatre this summer.
