<p>'Taut, attention-grabbing new drama... At a point when it seems easier for headlines to demonise the young and disaffected rather than focus on the cycles of abuse and betrayal that create them, <em>Protection</em> races the audience through a sparky evocation of individuals tackling some of the greatest problems facing Tony Blair's Britain'</p>
Evening Standard
A tough but vulnerable play about our crumbling social fabric - and the people who have to pick up the pieces.
Protection is a behind-the-scenes look at a team of social workers and their 'clients' in Britain's most misunderstood public service. Angela breaks the rules to get things done - her way. Shirley misses the old days, when protection came without a price. Their manager, Gordon, is screwing Angela whilst busy claiming on expenses. And for newcomer Grace, it's a struggle simply not to piss anyone off.
Fin Kennedy's play was first performed at Soho Theatre, London, in 2003.
