My Country - A Work In Progress

My Country - A Work In Progress.
In the words of people across the UK and Carol Ann Duffy.

In the days after the EU referendum, the National Theatre began a nationwide listening project. A team of interviewers spoke to people around the country – from Leicester to Londonderry and Merthyr Tydfil to Glasgow – to hear their views of the country and town they live in, their lives, their future, and the referendum.

Using exact words taken from the interviews, My Country puts those conversations centre stage. Rufus Norris, Director of the National Theatre, collaborates with Carol Ann Duffy, Poet Laureate, to create this new production which opens in London before playing at venues around the country.

Created in collaboration with eight UK arts organisations in association with Cusack Projects Limited.
