Commentaires : ‘A famous pacifist once said: ‘We must teach ourselves to make the same sacrifices for the business of peace that we make unquestioningly for the business of war. There is nothing which is more important to me, and which lies closer to my heart.
I was born in Coventry, with two parents and two brothers. And one set of grandparents living on an island called Penang, on the west coast of Malaysia, and one set of grandparents living on an island called Man, on the west coast of England. I was raised to believe that you should love your neighbour more than yourself, and that it’s better to be killed than to kill. I used to think I knew where I stood.
This is a story about discovering and excavating and questioning and mourning, and learning and learning and learning. About the events and places which have become significant to me because of the blood in the ground, and about tracing the links between them. It’s a theatre essay on mixed-race families, militant pacifism, and the Rape of Nanking.’
