Hansard at The Alma Tavern & Theatre
About
It's a summer's morning in 1988 and Tory politician Robin Hesketh has returned home to the idyllic Cotswold house he shares with his wife of 30 years, Diana. But all is not as blissful as it seems. Diana has a stinking hangover, a fox is destroying the garden, and secrets are being dug up all over the place.
She's a liberal, married to a man passing laws that will tear into the fabric of British society. As she attacks his voting record, it's clear there is more to be said.
Hansard is an intimate domestic drama about a long and troubled marriage. It is also a comedy about politics and identity and the failings of the ruling class. Set around the passing of the Section 28 legislation in 1988, which banned the "promotion" of homosexuality. It is funny, tender, brutal, and ultimately devastating.
ProAct are excited to be bringing this play to the Alma Tavern and Theatre. Despite being set in 1988 there are some worrying parallels to modern day United Kingdom.
