Interruptions (NHB Modern Plays)

A boldly innovative drama exploring ideas about democracy, politics and leadership.
The country is preparing for an election.

The country undergoes a military coup.

The country must live through the consequences.
Stephen Jeffreys' play Interruptions, written while he was resident at the University of California, Davis, was inspired by his interest in the collective aspect of politics and his fascination with the Japanese aesthetic principle of Jo-ha-kyu.
It was first performed at UC Davis, California, in 2001.
