Their name says it all: this British collective isn’t afraid of shattering theatrical traditions by mixing media, putting audiences in confronting situations or embracing controversial political material. To Be Straight With You relies on interviews with people persecuted because of their sexual orientation to question religion, sex and tolerance.

At the crossroads between musical and documentary, Lola Arias brings us a choral composition in which six female former inmates talk about their lives during and after incarceration. Their six intertwining destinies raise questions about the various forms of violence present in contemporary society, whilst exploring the margins of fiction and reality at the same time.
