(INAUDIBLE) TRUTHS: a play in two acts

(INAUDIBLE) TRUTHS book
(INAUDIBLE) TRUTHS back

(INAUDIBLE) TRUTHS explores the idea of political ritual, and how those in power use ritual to maintain a sense of order, justice and equality. In cases like Chelsea Manning's, the courtroom serves as a stage on which truth is concealed rather than brought to light.

This eight-fold functions both as a poster and a book.
