ROADKILL

Ankur and Pachamama Productions in association
with the Traverse and Tron Theatre
Directed by Cora Bissett

In Benin City, a young girl struggles to support her family. A world away, in an Edinburgh tenement, 'aunty' Martha arranges a job and flight for her.

Journey with her on the bus that leads to a new life and discover the nightmare reality behind Martha's promises.

Based on the experiences of young women trafficked to Scotland, Cora Bissett's explosive production, combines direct, chilling performances with video, animation and music. Roadkill thrusts you into the brutal, complex, hidden world behind the newspaper headlines on sex-trafficking.

Not a world away from you, but a world on your doorstep.
