Nottingham based 2 Magpies Theatre (Ventoux) return to The Courtyard with Last Resort, a creative reimagining of an alternative future for Guantanamo Bay.
The waterboarding has stopped, the noise has been turned down and the military base has been reclaimed as a holiday destination. The audience are holidaymakers who will sit in a deckchair, with a rum cocktail on arrival and will feel the sand between their toes.
2 Magpies Theatre will act as tour guides as they take the audience through the tropical haze on a unique multi-sensory package holiday. This is an extraordinary rendition and it is all-inclusive. Last Resort is a menacing fiction, made entirely of unimaginable fact.
This immersive show was developed through a research process bringing together artists, academics and human rights organisations including Reprieve. Commissioned by The Lowry.
