Index on Censorship and iceandfire present Seven Years With Hard Labour, a performance composed of five accounts from former and current political prisoners in Burma. Through their engaging, divergent and often humorous stories a damning picture of a ruthless military regime is painted. The world premiere takes place at Global Forum on Freedom of Expression, 3 June 8.30pm at Litteraturhuset, Wergenlandsveien, 29, 0167 Oslo. Scripted by Christine Bacon and Sara Masters (iceandfire) Commissioned and co-produced by Index on Censorship
