Book SynopsisI believed that Fukayama line: the end of history. But History didn't end, did it? Logan Dankworth, columnist and Twitter warrior, grew up romanticising the political turmoil of the 1980s. Now, as the EU Referendum looms he is determined to be in the fray of the biggest political battle for years. Meanwhile, Logan's wife Megan wants to leave London to better raise their daughter. As tensions rise at home and across the nation, something is set to be lost forever. The third of Luke Wright's trilogy of political verse plays looks at trust and privilege in the age of Brexit. "Poet Luke Wright doesn't mince his words. His performances rumble with rage, passion and humour. They are also peppered with brilliantly smart observations. You will leave his show brimming with energy, heart pounding and brain whirring." The Guardian
Trade Review'Like its forerunners, it is told in raw, rollicking first-person poetry. And like its forerunners, it is great - a hurtling, headlong hour of storytelling stuffed full of savage satire and astute observations, with the energy of Wright's delivery surging from the screen. We are so busy tearing everything down, he argues, that we never actually build anything anymore.' Fergus Morgan, The Stage; 'Wright's performance is human, vulnerable, eminently honest and very, very eloquent. There is some sensational writing in this show. [...] Its rhythm is mesmerising, too, and Wright paces his storytelling like a trainride, quickening to exhilaration, slowing to pathos, and always keeping us with him.' Arifa Akbar, The Guardian
