Draining The Swamp
20 April 2024 All day

About Draining the Swamp
By D.R. Hill
Draining the Swamp is a provocative new play, with five actors, exploring the life and activities of Fascist leader, Sir Oswald Mosley, from the 1930’s to 1960’s. It links Mosley’s world, and that of his controversial wife, Diana Mitford, to contemporary politicians and populist movements, with a chilling 2019 conclusion.
