Truth to Power Café (UK/Australia) Jeremy Goldstein in collaboration with community members November 3 | 7pm Norman & Annette Rothstein Theatre
From Adelaide to Zagreb and now in Vancouver for its Canadian premiere, Jeremy Goldstein ’s Truth to Power Café is a profound theatrical reflection on loss, hope, and resistance. This internationally acclaimed award-winning performance event is told through memoir, image, film, poetry, music, and true and authentic stories from the people of Vancouver in response to the question: ‘who has power over you and what do you want to say to them?’ Personal, professional, political – speaking truth to power is a non- violent means of conflict resolution, the origins of which lie in the anti-war movement. Is it to your parents, a sibling, politician, landlord, neighbour, banker, boss, or simply your best friend? It’s time to tell them the truth before it’s too late. Truth to Power Café is inspired by the political and philosophical beliefs of Nobel Prize-winning playwright Harold Pinter and his inner Jewish circle “The Hackney Gang”, who included Jeremy Goldstein’s late father, Mick Goldstein , and poet and actor Henry Woolf .
