Synopsis: | In October 2005 the rumour of a rape sparked disturbances in Lozells, Birmingham, that led to the killing of one man, widespread damage and a fracture between two communities that had previously appeared to be living happily alongside one another. Inspired by the views, hopes and fears of local people connected to or affected by the disturbances, These Four Streets is an engaging and hopeful play that highlights a community's fight to stay together. A collaboration between six young female writers, These Four Streets explores the power of rumour and what it's like to live in a place that has been written off. | |||||
