Plain Quakers - On Human Folly

PLAIN QUAKERS is a theatrical partnership formed in 2007 to devise Nine Parts a Quaker, commemorating the abolition of the slave trade. It aims to raise awareness of Quaker traditions and deeper understanding of ethical issues. With support from Yorkshire Quakers it will tour On Human Folly in the autumn.

Well…perhaps tomorrow. “A valuable, thought-provoking play.”
