Exhibit B (Photo: © Sofie Knijff / Barbican)
Exhibit B, The City, the Tricycle Theatre… Several high profile cases this past summer have ignited a debate about artistic censorship in the UK.
Join us as part of RADAR Festival at the Bush Theatre in London to explore the rights of the artist to free expression, to examine the role of arts institutions in defending and promoting free expression, and to ask the question: is it ever better to censor than to cause offence? The event features:
- Zita Holbourne (artist, activist, co-organiser Boycott the Human Zoo Campaign)
- Stella Odunlami (artist, cast member Exhibit B)
- Chris Thorpe (writer, performer including Confirmation)
- Mekella Broomberg (Head of Arts and Culture, JW3)
- Madani Younis (Artistic Director, Bush Theatre)
- Jodie Ginsberg (CEO, Index on Censorship)
WHERE: Bush Theatre, London, W12 8LJ
WHEN: Thursday 13 November 2014, debate 9.00-10.00pm (following show 7.30-8.30pm)
TICKETS: £10 (early bird, including show) at www.bushtheatre.co.uk or 0208 743 5050 (box office)
