blackswans.jpg (38208 bytes)Goldsmiths Drama Society is back for the second year with an exciting trio of brand new plays.

All written and devised by members of the company, the plays ensure an eclectic mix of theatre and entertainment!

Set in a dark post-recession Britain, Black Swans forces the unification of the oppressors and oppressed on one stage. With all the recognisable social structures dissolving before them, a gaping divide has formed between the people; those who fight, and those who give in. A total re-establishment of social hierarchy is explored through the eyes of a family – powerless against the criminals and disgraced politicians ruthlessly taking control. The question is, are the ‘Swans’ willing to force themselves to the darkest sides of their personalities? How much damage will they inflict to ensure they have complete control of a society in such a vulnerable state?

Incorporating haunting poetic dialogue with careful choreography, the challenging story line is transformed into intense and highly stylised theatrical experience.
