Event details

One multinational. Four lives. In every corner of the world, a critical struggle for identity.

The Pulverised is a vital new play about escaping the rat race, overcoming borders and discovering new life. Following an explosive premiere at the Strasbourg National Theatre, where it won the prestigious Grand Prix de la Littérature, Alexandra Badea's timely and captivating drama arrives in the UK with a new English translation.

Join the Pulverised on their extraordinary global journey, from falling in love in a Chinese factory to swimming the Senegal seas.

Supported by Arts Council England.
