Our Country's Good Trailer | Theatre Royal Stratford East (with subtitles)

The modern masterpiece OUR COUNTRY'S GOOD comes to Theatre Royal Stratford East from Wed 25 Apr - Sat 5 May 2018. Tickets: http://bit.ly/OurCountrysGood Timberlake Wertenbaker's epic play tells the extraordinary true story of a group of convicts transported to Australia as a punishment for their crimes. Survival is by no means certain in this strange, unfamiliar world, yet an officer inspires them to rehearse and perform a play. Facing opposition, supply shortages, abuse and the threat of hangings, the odds are seemingly stacked against them. Our Country's Good is a Nottingham Playhouse and Ramps on the Moon production. Ramps on the Moon is a consortium of theatres dedicated to integrating disabled and non-disabled performers and practitioners. This programme aims to achieve a step change in the employment and artistic opportunities for disabled performers and creative teams , and a cultural change in the participating organisations to enable accessibility to become a central part of their thinking and aesthetics.
