Austerity & Me

The big word we’re told so little about. It’s reported to have caused over 120,000 deaths in the UK to date. It’s arguably the most pressing socio-political issue of our time. But what exactly is it? How does it actually affect us? And can we do anything about it?Austerity & Me is an artistic exploration of personal accounts by 18-24 year olds living in South London today. Told through spoken word and physical theatre, this work offers the opportunity for their voices to be heard in the struggle for survival against the violence austerity inflicts.
