It's a fantastic interview and the whole thing even contains excerpts from the production itself

Berlin, 1933. A modest apartment. Friends still laughing, still arguing, as tyranny closes in around them.

Tony Kushner's A Bright Room Called Day opens in three weeks at Carriageworks Theatre, and it asks something that feels uncomfortably current: how do ordinary people respond when faced with impossible decisions?

Presented by Leeds Arts Centre

17–20 June | The Studio, Millennium Square

Berlin, 1933. A small apartment. Wine, ci******es, friends, comrades and the slow creep of something terrible.

History is happening outside the window. Inside, something stranger is happening.

And then the KPD officers arrive. No mystery there. Just the grinding weight of a world that has already decided.
What do you do when the world goes wrong and you stay very, very still?

Don't miss this haunting exploration of history, complicity, and the light we try to keep burning.

👁️ ATTENTION CITIZEN

​Ten additional seats have been made available for 1984.

There have always been ten additional seats.

​Big Brother has seen your demand, and the Ministry of Plenty has provided. These final tickets for our run at the Carriageworks Theatre are moving rapidly. To ignore this opportunity would be... unwise

WAR IS PEACE. FREEDOM IS SLAVERY. SOLD OUT IS NOT AN OPTION.

​Secure your place in the Party before they vanish from history.

We took a minute during the whirlwind get in at All Hallows to chat to our set designer Mia Thomsen on what it means to design set for a portable show that's got to fit into the back of a car!
