Live & Local – Make Good: The Post Office Scandal
21 November @ 6:30 pm - 11:00 pm
Doors and bar open at 6.30pm.
A new musical by Jeanie O’Hare (Book) and Jim Fortune (Music & Lyrics). Directed by Elle While. Co-produced with New Perspectives.
Over twenty years a silent tragedy has unfolded in the heart of our communities. Entirely innocent sub-postmasters had their lives torn apart and faced bankruptcy, isolation and jail for crimes that were never committed, for debts that never existed.
Directly informed by conversations with affected sub-postmasters, Make Good dives into this most local of stories, capturing the raw emotions, the bewilderment and the unbreakable bond of faith and family that were put to the test. Experience the astonishing resilience of entire communities as lives were destroyed in a scandal that isn’t over yet…
“[Pentabus is] One of the most important theatre companies in the country” The Daily Telegraph “New Perspectives has taken on an exciting challenge that proves rural touring companies can produce provocative work of national and international significance” edfringereview.com
