The Lady Of Burma
by Richard Shannon
with Liana Mau Tan Gould as Aung San Suu Kyi
directed by Richard Shannon and Owen Lewis designed by Polly
Sullivan lighting by Tim Mascall sound by John Mills
The inspirational true story of Burmese leader Aung San Suu
Kyi is told in this compelling solo performance about the
life of the only Nobel Peace Prize winner who is also a political
prisoner. Despite being head of the democratically-elected
political party, Burma' s military junta have kept Suu Kyi
under house arrest for over a decade.
This powerful performance has already been made sell-out appearances
at the Edinburgh festival and the Old Vic in London. Regardless
of what you know or think about Burmese politics, this show
is an unmissable hymn to the power of the human spirit in
the quest for freedom.
