Beat Poetry

MFA Acting International

In a time and a place where a small minority community heavily police what stories are told and terrifying violence lurks beneath a calm surface… A poet arrives.


'Don't say goodbye. 
It hurts too much.
Think of me like a flame you saw on the hill…’

In a small town in a large country lives a small minority community.

The parental Council carefully control their culture and stories. Unseen and unconsidered by the wider population, the community projects an aura of contentment and harmony.

But underneath this thin veneer lurks a terrifying violence.

And now the sewage is failing, the books aren’t balancing and a poet from out of town has arrived…
