Stop Search is a new play that examines the human story behind stop-and-search police powers in the United Kingdom. It looks with an unflinching gaze at the tense drama young people must play out in the public space. In the run up to the Olympics and with police-community relations in the spotlight after last summer’s riots, Stop Search is a timely look at the impact of police stop and search powers. It’s all over the news, but how does it feel to be right in the thick of it?    

Stop Search is a Present Theatre production and is supported by Stop Watch, a grantee of the Open Society Foundations.
