SF38 The Trial of the Shell 7
Sparkfest 2022
Masonic Hall @ Old Theatre Royal
MENUA rehearsed reading of a verbatim play by Margaret Heffernan.
“Shell knew, Shell lied, Shell knows still, who were the criminals?”
In April 2019 a group of Extinction Rebellion supporters smashed the front doors of Shell’s headquarters on the London South Bank. The protest lasted two days with seven people being arrested and charged with criminal damage. Tonight’s rehearsed reading of Margaret Heffernan verbatim drama tells the story of the trial, built from dramatised court transcripts, actuality and interviews.
