Liverpool in Edinburgh
Liverpool Everyman Playhouse has a production on at the . Unprotected' (a 'Made In Liverpool' production) played to full houses in Liverpool during March and created a bit of a stir with it's hard-hitting verbatim authentic depiction of the people hiding in the shadows of our city. With the 'Nationals' giving the production rave 4 & 5 star reviews a transfer somewhere was hopefully on the cards.
'Unprotected' was created in response to Liverpool City Council's proposed 'Managed Zone' for street sex workers using hundred of transcripted interviews with the people directly involved in every aspect of the debate as it's text.
It's not easy viewing. The managed zone feasibility study came about as a direct result of the horrific murder of two prostitutes in the city in 2003 - the mothers of the victims are represented in the play -the production does not shy away from all that that entails but...would such a hard hitting, piece of gritty realism marry itself to the atmosphere of excitement & frivolity which surrounds the city during festival time?
