Stella Feehily

This May Hurt A Bit (NHB Modern Plays) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A witty, tender, and occasionally surreal exploration of one family's experience of the NHS.

A month after stating 'we will stop the top-down reorganisation of the NHS that has got in the way of patient care', the government launched the biggest top-down reorganisation the service had seen in its 65-year history.

Stella Feehily's play explores one family's journey through the digestive system of the NHS, and asks: what is the prognosis for this much-loved institution?

This May Hurt A Bit premiered in 2014, on a UK tour co-produced by Out of Joint, and Octagon Theatre, Bolton.

'urgent, clever, anarchic... I defy anyone to leave without a renewed sense of pride in our greatest institution, and some serious concerns about its future.' - Time Out

'surreal, hilarious and hard-hitting' as theatrically entertaining as it is politically committed' - Observer

'urgently topical' a passionate defence of nationalised medicine and a call to fight for its preservation - Guardian
