The Dingle Community Theatre will be performing the play SIMON JONES WAS SOMEONE! on May 8th and May 10th at 8pm at the Casa Club, Hope Street, Liverpool. Entrance is free. Tickets are available from the Casa Club or by phoning 0771 684 8894.
The play, written by Alan Bower and Tom Mclennan, is an hour long, agitprop style drama that looks at Simon's death and the subsequent campaign to get justice for him and his family.
The play is performed by Liverpool group, Dingle Community Theatre, who have celebrated May day for the last seven years with a dramatic offering. Past performances have included plays on the Tolpuddle Martyrs (set on the Liverpool Docks) and the Wobblies, the American syndicalist trade unionists who fought the bosses tooth and nail.
"Simon Jones was Someone" not only looks at the personal tragedy behind casualisation and a deregulated society where profits come first - it also looks at the possible responses to such horrible crimes and the failure of trade unionism in the post-Thatcher era to challenge them.
A collection will be held after the play for the Simon Jones Memorial Campaign.
