Guantanamo is a play by Victoria Brittain and Gillian Slovo, taken from spoken evidence. Directed by Nicolas Kent and Sacha Wares. Weaving together personal stories, legal opinion and political debate, Guantanamo: Honor Bound to Defend Freedom looks at the questions surrounding the detentions in Guantanamo Bay, and asks how much damage is being done to Western democratic values during the 'war-on-terror'. This production transfers to London's West End following a successful one month season at the Tricycle Theatre in North-West London. Guantanamo Bay is where, following the war in Afghanistan, captives were taken by US forces. According to the Red Cross, - each cell contains a squat toilet and a face bowl with running water. Walls of cells are made of mesh material so there is no inbuilt privacy. You can see from one cell to another across the whole block. The guards say detainees have devised their own system of operational privacy using sheets and blankets. The lights are on twenty four hours a day. |
