Championing new works by British East and South East Asians (BESEA) and British Muslims, Ellandar Productions are committed to producing works seldom told on our stages, their debut work – No Particular Order an exploration of global politics and the rise of authoritarianism. Written by Papatango Prize 2019 finalist and former Associate Artist of Singapore’s renowned Checkpoint Theatre Joel Tan, the show spans 320 years, delivering snapshots of both a recognisable world and visions of the future. It charts the rise, fall and continuation of a nation, always asking the same question “Is it empathy or power that endures?” Ahead of the show’s run from 31st May to 18th June at Theatre503, Joel tells us more about exploring the show’s narrative further, founding his vital theatre company Ellandar Productions, working with the creative team to realise the show and what audiences can expect.
