TALKING TO TERRORISTS
By Robin Soans
By arrangement with The Agency (London) Ltd.

Australian Premiere Season.
Talking to Terrorists is a play commissioned by the Royal Court and Out of Joint in 2005. The writer Robin Soans, director Max Stafford – Clark, and actors interviewed people from around the world who have been affected by or involved in terrorism. They wanted to know what makes ordinary people do extreme things, often at a shockingly young age. The people they met, several of whom have asked not to be named, spoke candidly and often bravely.
Peacemakers, journalists and hostages. Significant figures from recent history. And those who have crossed the line. Their stories take us from Africa, Israel, Turkey, Iraq and Ireland to the heart of the British Establishment.
‘One story we heard seemed particularly significant. A relief- worker told us of arriving at a large village which had been completely destroyed. The people there were angry not because they had nothing to eat and nowhere to live but because non-one had listened to their story of what had happened. “A huge part of what we call terrorism arises from non- one listing,” she said.’ Robin Soans & Max Stafford- Clarke.
Cast includes, Mathew Costin, David D’Silva, Zuzi Fort, Kira Fort, Tiffany Joy, Alyson Standen, Kyle Stewart, Joseph JU Taylor.
