I saw A Giant on the Bridge last night which was part of his stupid trashing. It was an incredible piece of theatre, giving voice to the experience of others (& what else should art be?) on top of its rehabilitative value. But some people just want to destroy the good things.

So glad I got to see this last night! A perfect example of the power of the arts… together celebrating “tiny victories” and moments of hope by the voices that often dismissed in this society. Some absolute tunes in there also - total class from start to finish! 👏❤️

A must-see at @edfringe - A Giant on the Bridge at @AssemblyRoxy. Was deeply moved by the powerful storytelling & beautiful music, building a metaphorical bridge, reminding that those who enter prison aren't just numbers, they are people with stories that deserve to be visible.
