How does a society reconcile its religious beliefs with an individual's human rights?

DV8’s Artistic Director Lloyd Newson leads a multi-ethnic cast in a poetic but unflinching exploration of tolerance, intolerance, homophobia, religion and sexuality. Based on hundreds of hours of personal stories collected from individuals directly affected by these issues, To Be Straight with You powerfully incorporates dance, text, documentary, animation and film.

DV8 Physical Theatre's work is about taking risks, aesthetically and physically, about breaking down the barriers between dance, theatre and personal politics and, above all, communicating ideas and feelings clearly and unpretentiously.
