19:45, Tue 16th – Sat 20th October 2007 at ADC Theatre
Michaelmas Week 2

The Swan Theatre Company presents an amateur production of Simon Stephens'

MOTORTOWN

Directed by Robert Icke.

'I wanted to write a play that is dark and contradictory and violent because our culture is dark and contradictory and violent. In that sense, I wanted to write, as honestly as I possibly could, about England’ - Simon Stephens

‘The war was alright. I miss it. It’s just you come back to this.’

Danny returns home. All is not well. A play in eight scenes about the war on terror and the culture that drives it, Motortown has established itself as one of the most controversial, most impressive and most important plays of the millennium.

Following its sellout productions of The Alchemist and Much Ado About Nothing, The Swan Theatre Company returns to the ADC with this explosive new play, premiered to great acclaim last year at the Royal Court.
