520 |a "John Hollingworth is a brave man. An actor by trade, he has chosen for his first full-length play to write about multiculturalism: more specifically, the tensions inside a divided Bradford family. But while one could pick holes in his plot, his play is as urgent and immediate as the morning headlines. Hollingworth uses an interrelated quartet to highlight the big issues. Kash is a secular, widowed Muslim keen to stand for parliament and prepared to address a Tory party conference, taking place in Bradford, on the need to rebuild trust. But Kash is beset by problems. On the eve of the conference his partner, Natalie, converts to Islam and gets involved in a women's antiwar sit-in. Meanwhile, Kash's mutinous teenage daughter, Qadira, is drawn into staging a more violent protest in the course of his big speech. As if this weren't enough, Natalie's mother, Lyn, a local Tory bigshot, chooses this moment to air her anti-immigrant views." --  |c theguardian.com 
500 |a "Multitudes was first performed at the Tricycle Theatre, London, on 19 February 2015." 
520 |a "On the eve of a Conservative Party Conference the country is in turmoil and one of its most multicultural cities awaits a visit from the Prime Minister. Kash, a liberal British Muslim, prepares his address to politicians about the state of the nation. His girlfriend Natalie, a recent convert to Islam, cooks for anti-war protesters gathered at the Town Hall. Lyn, her mother, moans to anyone who'll listen about the decline of her cherished England. It's all too much for Kash's daughter Qadira, who begins to plan a radical intervention. As the nation questions immigration policies and military support in the Middle East, one family face their own internal conflict of faith, belonging, and who gets to call themselves British."--Publisher description.
