Overview
How far would you go for what you believe in? Kat gets up one morning,
leaves her family behind and travels to London to carry out an act that
will change her life and, she hopes, everyone else's. For those it
touches, their lives will never be the same. But what, in the end, are
the real consequences of her actions? Raw, disturbing and compassionate,
James Fritz's searingly powerful play forces a confrontation with some
of the most urgent questions we face.
What can one individual do
to effect change? And where do we choose to draw the line between
absolute commitment and dangerous obsession? Parliament Square won the
Judges' Award in the 2015 Bruntwood Prize for Playwriting. It had its
world premiere on the main stage at Manchester's Royal Exchange Theatre
in 2017, before transferring to the Bush Theatre, London.
