Minsk 2011: A Reply to Kathy Acker

Welcome to Minsk - the sexiest city in the world!

In Belarus people bear the scars of repression all over their body. Gay pride marches are brutally surpressed. Underground nightclubs are routinely raised by special forces. If scars are sexy then Minsk must be the sexiest city in the world.

A lament for a city that has lost its way, for a beloved home that has turned ugly, for a people who cannot express themselves.

Obie Award winning Belarus Free Theatre was founded in 2005. in Europe's last surviving dictatorship. Under impossible conditions the company continue to produce great theatre that is recognised internationally, and the group count Tom Stoppard and Jude Law among their supporters.

Fringe First Winner 2011

"This remarkable company shares it's experiences with such wit, intelligence and theatrical imagination" **** The Scotsman
