Calculating Kindness
T512602979
An arresting production based on the life of George Price (1922-1975), presented within yards of where Price lived, worked and died. This striking work, shares the man, his work and extraordinary life. Watching Price wrestle with and ultimately falling victim to his theory, will have profound implications for the way we understand ourselves. Undercurrent weighs up the question: was Price mentally ill, or consumed by a spiritual desire to disprove his own theory: that man is only kind to his own kin? Price's radical acts of altruism challenge us to examine our own acts of kindness in a time of austerity and self-interest.
