Talking About Fire

Balkerne Gate, Colchester, CO1 1PT

This show is for over 14's only. ID may be required at the door.
Description

Nuclear weapons could destroy us all, right now – so why aren’t we talking about them?

Sometimes the threat slides into view – Russia invades Ukraine – but that doesn’t make the weapons more dangerous. They’re always dangerous. And one day, deliberately or accidentally, they’ll be used again.

From the team that created the award-winning Status and Confirmation, comes a show about a new nuclear weapons treaty – one that’s trying to give the power to eliminate nuclear weapons to the states, and people, who don’t possess them.

It’s a show and a conversation. We’ll talk about where we are, where we live, and why it’s important people like us talk about this at all.
