Show Information

Please note, unless otherwise stated, all of our performances are strictly over 18s only

Everywhere you go people speak English. That’s a good thing, right? Not necessarily. Learning English means unfairness, injustice and dogma. Minority languages are dying out. Refugees are denied status because they can't pass a language test. BAME teachers are not employed overseas as they are not considered "native speakers". Dr Claudia Rosenhan (University of Edinburgh) says you should stop learning English and start using your own languages around the world.
