Your town is teetering on the brink. Imminent destruction looms. Homes, livelihoods and an entire way of life are at stake. There's only one thing for it: a town meeting. But we need help - your help! Time is running out to have your say... Assisted only by shambolic Junior Planning Officer Benjamin Rennold, Little Rikjord's representatives must choose what is best for the future of their town. This play explores how communities react to external pressures and seek to represent themselves. Rather than research participants, the audience will be co-investigators. Dr. Paul Cowie from Newcastle University will be making a written record of the performance but no personal information will be taken nor will anyone or their views be identifiable in the published research. There will be an opportunity to be credited as co-researchers.
