Burjesta Theatre Devising Workshops & ‘Burning of the Sick and the Poor’ Production

Come and join us this Wednesday, at the earlier time of 6pm, as we begin work on devised theatre for our late Spring production, a satire of British society and the crisis in housing that is affecting millions of people.

We’ll be looking at issues around housing such as, the loss of council houses (now renamed social houses), the rise in slum landlordism, homelessness (street and people living in temporary accommodation), cuts to Housing Benefit and the Bedroom Tax, the gentrification of desired areas and the removal of the working class from those areas and some of the issues around the Grenfell Fire and how it relates to the treatment of working class people.
