Testing The Echo
By David Edgar
Where did Father Christmas originate?
How do you feel about men holding hands?
What should you do if you spill someone’s drink?
Written with charm and a sense of wonder, David Edgar’s play is a fascinating tapestry about the twisting road to becoming British.
Secretly, Tetyana wants to escape her marriage. Mahmood gets kidnapped for his own good. Chong is fine on football but fails on Guy Fawkes. And the motley crew in Emma’s English class are all looking for something, whether it’s a passport or a fight. As the day of their ceremony approaches, Emma’s students begin to challenge some of her dearest-held beliefs.
David Edgar’s plays include Pentecost, Playing With Fire, Destiny and his famous adaptation for the RSC of Nicholas Nickleby, now revived in the West End.
