The latest installment in a 'satirically provocative' series of plays is heading to Cambridge Junction.

Dead Cats - by theatre group Proto-type, takes audiences into 'the room where the lies begin'.

Focusing on media manipulation, governmental lies, political protest, secrecy, democracy, power and influence, the script by Andrew Westerside sees unnamed characters A (Gillian Lees) and B (Rachel Baynton) argue, spar and banter.

Rachel Baynton said: "As recent government announcements and retractions have so clearly (if clumsily) illustrated, it’s all about the game - all about the winning - for our politicians, and they’ll redefine anything and everything to meet their ever-changing agenda."

Dead Cats is the latest play in Proto-type's Truth to Power Project, all of which are embedded in the international political arena - taking audiences to a place where artifice and spin are the tools of choice.
