STOCKWELL SHOOTING (1/2)

Playwrights Paul Unwin and Sarah Beck, authors of This Much Is True (Theatre 503), an imaginative verbatim account of the killing of Jean Charles de Menezes at Stockwell tube station in 2005, talk to Aleks Sierz about the incident and its repercussions.

One of the amazing things that happened in the aftermath of the shooting is the role of chance in bringing people together in the campaign.
