The Sin Eaters was a rewrite of the earlier play Decade. It is set in the female security wing at Durham Prison, England. The below quotes were from the plays programme:
…’ how delicate it is to give a voice to pain’ Camus
‘the conditions in the small confined units are such that no civilised country should tolerate’ The Mountbatten report, 1966.
‘I don’t think I’ve seen anywhere psychologically worse’ Laurie Taylor, Professor of Sociology.
The play was dedicated to Judy Ward, H-Wing, Durham Prison, Old Elvert, Durham City, England.
