About Grenfell: in the words of survivors

This powerful new verbatim play, from true survivor stories of the Grenfell Tower tragedy, makes its New York debut direct from London's National Theatre.

The hundreds of residents of West London’s Grenfell Tower had their origins in the Caribbean, Portugal, Syria, Morocco, Ethiopia, Britain, and more: a thriving community of communities immediately familiar to any New Yorker. They protested loudly for years as their mismanaged public housing fell into disrepair. When the building went up in flames in 2017, there was no shock, only horror. In the end, 72 lives would be lost.

Grenfell: in the words of survivors offers a compelling investigation into the catastrophe, driven by the survivors’ stories, their heroic acts, and their impassioned struggle for justice.

Masterful, Intelligent, Great writing, Great staging, Great acting

See it if A smart,tight,informative,moving play abt a community that cared x 1 another before&after a lousy fire that killed 71ppl in London in 2017.*

Don’t see it if Three hours may be too long x some but they go fast. Also, the production looks simple because it is so perfect.

Powerful, Intense, Devastating

See it if you like theater that matters, telling real stories in an absorbing punch-in-the-gut staging that will leave you sad, angry and thoughtful.

Don’t see it if you don't like shows about contemporary themes, documentation theater or prefer a light night out. There's also minor audience participation
