Alternative theatre special: Mike Bradwell (2/2)

13th July 2010

INTERVIEW: MIKE BRADWELL (2/2)

The director talks to Aleks Sierz about his new book, The Reluctant Escapologist: Adventures in Alternative Theatre (Nick Hern), which tells of his experiences of making contemporary theatre with Hull Truck, which he founded in 1971, and at the Bush, which he headed 1996-2007, and with Ken Campbell. Expletives not deleted.

We were doing social satire, looking at our contemporaries across a wide class spectrum from public schoolboys to people on the dole.
