Book Land of the Free tickets, the searing new play in London at the Southwark Playhouse

"The world has never had a good definition of the word liberty, and the American people, just now, are much in want of one" - Abraham Lincoln

1865. The United States are disunited by politics, power and race. To celebrate the end of Civil War, a victorious Abraham Lincoln goes to the theatre. Not long into the show a man walks in and shoots him. Who was he? Why did he do it? And why does it matter now?

In the lead up to a tumultuous American election this November, the award winning Simple8 examine the present by visiting the past, with a searing new play about John Wilkes Booth, the actor who assassinated a President.
