After Orlando


Please note - After Orlando has moved to a new venue at The Vaults Theatre, Launcelot Street, London, SE1 7AD


After Orlando is a global theatre action in response to the fatal Orlando attack: a playwright driven project comprising over seventy short plays specifically written and curated by emerging and established international voices in theatre. They will be read across the US and UK throughout the Autumn.

On the six month anniversary of the shooting - Chaskis Theatre presents an evening of a selection of these short plays and poems, in memory of the lives lost and the lives still affected.

All profits from the event will be donated to London LGBT charity Stonewall, who campaign for acceptance without exception.

After Orlando is a Chaskis Theatre production in conjunction with Missing Bolts Productions and NoPassport Theatre Alliance & Press.

 

‘As theatremakers, we have the ability to bring together many singular unique voices toward a common goal. We have invited some of the most admired theatre artists worldwide to participate; to share our grief, our anger, our hope and our desire to combat the violence we are now living with on a daily basis.’ Kline and Baker of Missing Bolts Productions

‘Making some healing art, some fiery art, some work that just says we can rise up from and through collective mourning.’ Caridad Svich

‘Chaskis' dedication to introducing new work from multicultural backgrounds shows a great commitment to progress in the theatre and sharing stories across borders - an empathy necessary in theatre in this new century.' Nate Rufus Edelman, American playwright
