A riotous journey through four waves of immigration from the 17th century to today. As the French Huguenots, the Irish, the Jews and the Bangladeshis in turn enter the chaotic world of Bethnal Green, each new influx provokes a surge of violent protest over housing, jobs, religion and culture. And the emerging pattern shows that white flight and anxiety over integration is anything but new.
Part of the £10 Travelex Ticket season.
Excellent play and production! I got the book and would love to know if the DVD will be released.

I saw this play yesterday. It was hilarious! Go see it while it's still at the NT.
