To Be Straight With You
DV8 and its artistic director, Lloyd Newson, have always been well ahead of the game. Now, just at a point when others are catching up, Newson reinvents the rules...Hard-hitting and passionate... you will not be able to resist this brave, life-affirming
The Guardian
Why see To Be Straight With You?
"Stirring... startling... strikingly sustained"
The Times
Lloyd Newson's DV8 Physical Theatre has won 16 awards over the last three years for its stage and film works including a Prix Italia and the Rose D'Or.
The company's latest work, To Be Straight with You, is a poetic but unflinching exploration of tolerance, intolerance, religion and sexuality. It incorporates dance, text, documentary, film and animated projections to create a unique piece of theatre.
