A sharp new look at the ever-growing generational divide between activists
The Almeida Theatre announces the full cast for Polly Findlay’s production of Kendall Feaver’s Alma Mater. The production opens on Tuesday 18 June with previews from Tuesday 11 June, and runs until Saturday 20 July.
The full cast includes Nathalie Armin, Phoebe Campbell, Liv Hill, Liam Lau-Fernandez, Nathaniel Parker, Lia Williams and Susannah Wise.
It’s a culture that begins with a joke, a gesture, a throwaway word or a game between friends, and it ends in an act of violence.
Jo Mulligan is the first female master in her prestigious college’s history. Determined to create a space where everyone feels welcome, she starts dismantling old ways of working.
But an alarming incident on campus throws her tenure into turmoil, and Jo is pitted against Nikki, a student impatient for justice.
With the college polarised and both sides doubling-down, will anyone emerge unscathed?
