Distortion
By Amanda Verlaque
The New Theatre
A homophobic unionist minister resigns in disgrace. A new political party fronted by a photogenic, yet shallow husband and wife team want his once-safe seat. To secure it they need a jaded electorate’s support. An “out and proud” PR guru is hired for the buff and polish, but when careers clash with ego, and conscience clashes with lies, who wins? Distortion is a fictional take on PR spin, sexuality and the personalities jockeying for position in Northern Ireland's stagnant political arena.
The New Theatre wish to acknowledge the The Arts Council, Dublin City Council and Dublin City of Literature UNESCO for their continued support of TNT and all New Writing play readings and productions.
