Northern Broadsides

By Dario Fo, presented by Northern Broadsides, Directed by Conrad Nelson.

A man has "fallen" to his death from a window whilst in police custody.  Accidents happen, but did he jump or was he pushed?

And what is the significance of the ill-fated Mancunian Salsa dancer?

Brace yourself for an evening of riotous political farce and sparkling satire as Northern Broadsides brings you Dario Fo’s comic tour de force, ’Accidental Death of an Anarchist’.

A brilliant expose of police corruption rooted in real events in 1960s Italy - this contemporary adaptation brings the play closer to home, to northern England and revels in Dario Fo’s anarchic genius.

Northern Broadsides exuberant cast of charismatic northern actors will unashamedly ’big up’ the sheer lunacy of the plot whilst chillingly exposing the issues of our time… with disturbing hilarity.  Think ’Have I Got News For You’ meets ’Life on Mars’ and be prepared for an outrageously entertaining theatre experience.
