Fair

T1808670270
A love and hate story for blazing summer, inspired by events in the northern towns where the BNP has gained a foothold. When a festival is set up to unite the community a year after race riots, the clash between plans to celebrate multiculturalism or hold a traditional English fair lead to a rollercoaster ride for young lovers Railton and Melanie whose relationship implodes when they discover each other s politics. Set amidst the dizzying whirl of the fairground, the play sears off the skin of racism to explore the town s - and the country s - search for identity.
