Chilcot

'It was like the end of times. The end of the world.'

On 20 March 2003, Tony Blair declared that Britain was at war. A nation collapsed, tens of thousands were killed and Islamic State was born. Tasked with exploring Britain’s role in the Iraq War, the evidence presented to the Chilcot Inquiry was devastating and stark.

Drawing together testimonies from leading political players with the forgotten voices of veterans, families who lost relatives and Iraqi refugees, this pertinent and bold piece of documentary theatre investigates the biggest foreign policy disaster in modern times and the accountability of those who have power over us.
