One-to-one conversations will be designed to discern as wide a range of attitudes as possible to the UK and its future.
The project will inform the future direction of the National. Artistic director, Rufus Norris, says:
“Art always responds to the time. And this has been a huge wake-up call for all of us to realise that half the country feels that they have no voice. If we are going to be a national organisation we must speak to and for the nation. Our principal response initially is to listen: to listen to that voice and art will follow from that.
