"One story we heard seemed particularly significant. A relief worker told us of arriving at a large village which had been completely destroyed. The people there were angry not because they had nothing to eat and no-where to live but because no-one had listened to their story of what had happened. 'A huge part of what we call terrorism arises from no-one listening,' she said."

"Why can't we just admit that theatre using real people has become a fabulously rich and varied strand which, for many years, has been pumping red cells into the dramatic bloodstream. And if this kind of work does appear even more necessary and affecting at this particular time, doesn't that tell us something about the time as much as the work?"
