La Mama: Prisoner At The World’s End
18 November 2023 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm AEDT
Prisoner at the World’s End is a theatrical meditation on truth and the imprisonment of Julian Assange.
The play explores Assange’s predicament through the eyes of three very different women who work in a volunteer café at His Majesty’s Prison Belmarsh. Over the course of their day, as they work in a small room making sandwiches for inmates and visitors, they argue if Assange, the Australian in the High Security Unit is like the man in the biblical story, set upon by thieves, and left abandoned on a roadside until a Good Samaritan finds and helps him.
Beneath their feet runs a Neolithic pathway. Does violent primitive justice and magical thinking, still permeate the walls within England’s most notorious prison and justice system?
