Protest Tonight outside the Anna Scher Theatre (Reclaim our Theatre) 6.30/9.00pm

Calling all activists who protest against discrimination of any type, we need your support tonight outside the Anna Scher Theatre 70/72 Barnsbury Road nr Chapel Market Islington N1. This protest is against J.P. Steven Dawson the bloke who thinks he's God almighty on the board of directors, He has tried to tie the hands of a well loved and respected drama teacher who has done this type of work for 35 years, there are many people we see in programmes now that were educated by Anna Scher I will name but a few as the list is endless. Martin and Gary Kemp, Dexter Fletcher, Sonia Saul, Gillian Taylforth, Susan Tully, Patsy Palmer, Linda Robson, Kathy Burke and Phil Daniels.
Tonights protest is due to Steven Dawson being there and our direct action is against the present board of directors who have basically tied the arms of Anna Scher but informing her that she cannot return to the theatre she founded 35 years ago unless she signs some bullshit document with numerous clauses attatched, the major one is that should Anna Scher wish to teach a certain lesson to her students, she must first ask the permission of the current director Andy Smith who then has to telephone Steven Dawson to find out if Anna Scher can teach the lesson.
Steven Dawson A.K.A. GOD is a bloody joke, which circus act is he from? This miserable excuse of a man is being allowed to get away with discrimination against a wonderful woman that goes around the world doing peace drama workshops, bringing Jew and Arab together, Catholic and Protestant, black and white, and for 35 years Anna Scher ran her theatre with a policy that there would be no place for discrimination in her theatre whatsoever. Now Dawson and Co have dumped her into the street, making demands that are simply just not what the theatre is about and I call on anyone who hates the sight of greedy lying self centred pompus twats like Steven Dawson, if anyone can attend give Patrick a call on 0797 3536 682, it's time to reclaim our theatre, hope to see many of you there? After the protest there is a party going on at the Eton Mission, Hackney Wick E9 many of you already know about it, it's a fund raiser for disabled people who are always discriminated against, so I hope to see many of you there too.
