CAN WE TALK ABOUT THIS?

DV8s new production examines how controversial events have reflected and influenced multicultural policies, freedom of speech and censorship.

From the 1989 book burnings of Salman Rushdies The Satanic Verses, to the murder of filmmaker Theo Van Gogh and the controversy of the 'Muhammad cartoons' in 2005, DV8's new production examines how these events have reflected and influenced multicultural policies, freedom of speech and censorship.

Can We Talk About This? is based on real voices and interviews, with leading figures from across the religious, political, cultural and social spectrum, including MPs, high profile authors and journalists.

Can We Talk About This? makes its London premiere at the National Theatre, following a world tour.

Can We Talk About This? is suitable for theatregoers aged 16 and older.
