Rewritten in the light of current events, Whistleblower the story of Edward Snowden returns for a four-week run at Waterloo East Theatre.
The play tells the story of Snowden’s life on the run. He’s abandoned Hawaii and is holed up in a Hong Kong hotel room. Tortured by thoughts of his girlfriend, his mother and father and the fate of other whistleblowers in prison, he waits to see who will find him first.
Lynn Gardner for The Guardian said: “Whistleblower is always watchable. Events unfold with a thriller-like momentum…”
Whistleblower runs at Waterloo East Theatre from 8th February to 6th March 2016
