About A Little Inquest Into What We Are All Doing Here

By Josie Dale-Jones, Abbi Greenland and Rachel Lemon

In 2022 a show was cancelled while it was still in rehearsal.

The idea of what the show might be created a demand for it to be left unseen. A Little Inquest Into What We Are All Doing Here is a show about censorship and freedom of expression. This piece of theatre - part autobiography, part fiction - questions the limits of performance: what we make it for, what we go to it for and what we are willing to stand up for.

A Little Inquest Into What We Are All Doing Here is part of the Traverse's £1 Ticket Project.

Developed at Camden People's Theatre, Streatham Space Project, Old Diorama Arts Centre & New Diorama Theatre. With thanks to Shoreditch Town Hall.
