Sus
Uncannily prophetic... Obisesan's production has raw power.
The Guardian
Why see Sus?
Election night 1979...
The 'SUS' laws had made it legal for police to stop and search anyone - purely on suspicion.
Two detectives on the graveyard shift in an East London police station place bets on which party will win. A black man is picked up. He is incensed, believing that he'll be fodder for an incoming government keen to flex its law-and-order muscles.
Set on the eve of the Thatcher victory, this revival of Keeffe's classic coincides with the general election of 2010. What's changed?
