Verbatim theatre


BBC 2 10pm 5th March 2017 (or iplayer)

London Road" based on the National Theatre musical concerns the trial of Steve Wright.

It is Verbatim theatre (a documentary play constructed from the precise words spoken by people interviewed about a particular event or topic). Wikipedia.

It features Tom Hardy, Olivia Coleman and Anita Dobson.

I saw it 2015 when Rufus Norris the director spoke about his process when filming.

I think it is worth watching as it a genre not used very often
