“If you want to see the Prime Minister alive again, you’d better do what I say!”
If you’re a disillusioned teenager and you feel you have no chance of getting a place at University, a job when you leave school or will ever be able to afford to buy a house, there’s not a lot you can do about it is there?
It’s okay, never fear, thirteen year old Lucy has a plan. She’s going to kidnap the Prime Minister and hold the whole government to ransom until they fix all the problems. That should do the trick.
Sneaking into 10 Downing Street, disguised as a sick child who dreams of meeting the PM, Lucy carries out her unimaginable, dastardly plan. But has she taken it all a bit too far and can her friends help her find a better way to make a difference?
Kidnapping Cameron is a hilariously funny play that takes a serious look at the role young people can play in democracy and deciding their own future in today’s uncertain times.
The play has been commissioned for and developed with members of The Young REP, The REP’s youth theatre.
