The Statement

The Statement

A political statement with tenderness and benevolent intent.

2016 · 20 min · Drama

'The Statement’ is a wedge of realism; cold and current. A one-act play, with four characters locked in their own battle for control, and with the morality of their actions: they have been tasked with fueling a conflict in a distant country. Now, being asked to take responsibility for their actions in order to exonerate their superiors, a conflict is rising within their department. Writer - Johnathon Young. Choreographer - Crystal Pite.

Directed by Christophe Winckel · Written by Johnathon Young
