 | “ This powerful play by blind writer Maria Oshodi interprets real events taken from And There was Light, the autobiography of Jacques Lusseyran. It depicts how Lusseyran, who was blinded in an accident at the age of eight, went on to become a teenage member of the French resistance during the Second World War. A cast of six blind and visually impaired actors explore this compelling story using different theatrical approaches.” Ben Walsh – The Independent | Croydon Clocktower Bowen West Theatre, Bedford Loughborough Town Hall Theatre The Arts Centre, Liverpool The Hawth Studio, Crawley Swan Theatre, Worcester The Old Town Hall, Hemel Hempstead New Vic Theatre, Newcastle-under-Lyme The Custard Factory, Birmingham Phoenix Arts, Leicester Sallis Benney Theatre, Brighton Contact Theatre, Manchester Mylor Theatre, Truro The Space, Stroud Arena Theatre, Wolverhampton The Courtyard, Hereford The Castle, Wellingborough The Plough Arts Centre, Torrington Riverside Studios, Hammersmith Darlington Arts Centre The Paul Robeson Theatre, Hounslow Nottingham Arts Theatre Dorton House School (RLSB) Square Chapel Centre for the Arts, Halifax ADAPEI des Yvelines, Versailles, France Chateau Amphitheatre, Lycée International, Paris, France Blind in Theatre (BIT) Festival, Zagreb, Croatia The Albany, London
