After a sell-out run earlier this year, this topical and powerful
play returns to Soho Theatre. A programme text edition published in
conjunction with The Synergy Theatre Project in association with
The Forgiveness Project and Soho Theatre, The Long Road runs from
10 - 29 November 2008. 'Mary wants us to talk about the girl that
killed our son. I want to wipe her off the face of the earth' In
the aftermath of Danny's pointless murder, his family struggles to
find meaning and forgiveness. The Long Road evolved out of a period
of research with prisoners by Synergy Theatre Project, in
collaboration with The Forgiveness Project and award-winning
playwright Shelagh Stephenson. Synergy Theatre Project works
through theatre with offenders and ex-offenders towards
resettlement and rehabilitation whilst placing the wider issues
surrounding imprisonment in the public arena. The Forgiveness
Project encourages and empowers people to explore the nature of
forgiveness and alternatives to revenge. 'It is a rare play that
hits the news with such cruel topicality ...Stephenson offers a
powerful, illuminating piece of dramatic fiction' Nicholas de
Jongh, Evening Standard 'Rare and remarkable ...this is a drama
that cries out for attention - and richly rewards it' The Telegraph
