The Ethics of Verbatim Theatre | National Theatre

Verbatim theatre is a type of theatre-making where the text is generated from interviews with 'real life' people, and poses many ethical questions around the representation of these people in a controlled environment. In this film, key practitioners Alecky Blythe (London Road), Nadia Fall (Home), David Hare (Stuff Happens) and Nicolas Kent (The Colour of Justice) discuss their approach to these questions during their previous work.
