Hansard by Simon Woods - October 2024
The Play
Hansard is an intimate domestic drama about a long and troubled marriage. It is also a comedy about politics and identity and failings of the ruling class. Set around the passing of the Section 28 legislation in 1988, which banned the ‘promotion’ of homosexuality, it is tender, funny, brutal and ultimately devastating.
