3. The Trainer - a play By David Wilson and Anne Aylor The Trainer is a rehearsed reading of a play with two strands: one concerning the composer Keith Burstein who sued the Evening Standard after being accused of "glorifying" terror in his opera, "Manifest Destiny"; the other concerns Leila, the young Palestinian gym-trainer of the judges in Burstein's Court of Appeal. This is a surreal comedy about the "terror" laws that have descended into farce. It also demands that its audience re-define what is "terror". with Tim Pigott-Smith, Corin Redgrave, Paul Herzberg, Joanna Watt, Shahanara Begum and Anna Gilbert and others Adviser, Keith Burstein Director: Ben Henson Friday 6 March, 7.30 pm @ Oxford House, Derbyshire Street Bethnal Green, London E2 6HG (nearest tube: Bethnal Green) Tickets £5 online here: http://tinyurl.com/dmscpu Proceeds from the reading to Stop the War Coalition and the fund for the re-building of the Gaza Music School
