“STIRRING...STARTLING...STRIKINGLY SUSTAINED” The Times

Lloyd Newson’s DV8 Physical Theatre has won sixteen awards over the last four years for its stage and film works, including a Prix Italia and the Rose D’Or. Following a hugely successful international tour and 3 week sell out run at the National Theatre in London, DV8's latest production To Be Straight With You is one of the must-see shows of 2009.

 
A poetic and unflinching exploration of tolerance, intolerance, religion and sexuality, it incorporates dance, text, documentary, animation and film.
‘The persecution of people because of their sexual orientation is every bit as unjust as that crime against humanity, apartheid. We must all be allowed to love with honour.’ - Archbishop Desmond Tutu.
