The Unconquered by Torben Betts

One day you will say something from the heart, a truth forced raw and screeching from the howling depths of your soul. Powerful poetic language, dark humour and provocative ideas build a fast moving story around a fiercely intelligent young girl and her relentless refusal of the establishment. When suddenly a people's revolution breaks out and a mercenary soldier intrudes the family home, the conflict between the regime and the unconquered girl is revealed. This is a surreal and compelling theatrical experience on tour from 14th February 2007 by Stella Quines Theatre Company.
Torben Betts read English Literature & English Language at the University of Liverpool before training and working as an actor. Plays include: Spurning Comfort , A Listening Heaven; Incarcerator; Mummies and Daddies (shortlisted for 2000 Verity Bargate Award); Five Visions of the Faithful Clockwatching, The Last Days of Desire; The Biggleswades and The Lunatic Queen.
