Synopsis

Patience is running out, times have changed.
And progress isn’t enough.
Black British. African American.
Here. There.
Now.

“Change don’t give-a-fuck
change gone do its thing with or without you.”

Snapshots of lives, snapshots of experiences of protest; violence vs non-violence, direct action vs demonstrations, ear for eye follows characters navigating their way through society today.

ear for eye is the latest work by Olivier and BAFTA Award-winning writer and director debbie tucker green, one of theatre’s most original and internationally acclaimed voices. Her previous plays for the Royal Court include a profoundly affectionate, passionate devotion to someone (-noun), hang, truth & reconciliation, and random.
