Description
Danny's life is one of routine and desperation. He sleeps rough on the steps of St Paul's Cathedral, a familiar sight for years. But when he wakes to find a canvas city being erected in front of him, everything changes.
Tim Price's play, Protest Song, is a fictional account inspired by real events. This monologue explores the reality of the Occupy movement with humour and biting commentary. The world premiere took place at the National Theatre's Shed Theatre in December 2013.
This edition features an introduction by the playwright, Tim Price, offering insight into the making of this powerful work.
