The Inequalities: Beyond Caring; Love; Faith, Hope And Charity

Alexander Zeldin's plays are like no one else's: they humanely record the grim realities of the new age of austerity. (Guardian) The Inequalities combines three plays from British author and director Alexander Zeldin into a capitalism-critical trilogy. Contextualised with an essay before each play and in-depth interview with the author, Zeldin's three plays take a magnifying glass to the seemingly 'smaller' stories, with his realism shaped by the urge to portray societal truths on stage. His innovative research methods include involving people in the development and performance of his pieces who have genuinely been affected are the foundations of his work. Beyond Caring: “This desolate, quietly intense devised drama gets under your skin and into your bones... unforgettable.” (The Times) LOVE: "Gripping, amusing, uncomfortable, desperately moving. Zeldin shows us friction...but also kindness and dignity and lots of love without turning sugary." (The Times) Faith, Hope and Charity: "This is that rare thing: a necessary play that suggests Zeldin has taken on the role of the Victorian Henry Mayhew in compassionately documenting the lives of the urban poor." (The Guardian)
