In 1995, the small Essex town of Brightlingsea blockaded itself for 10 months in protest against live animal exports. Mums with buggies faced police brutality, elderly women chained themselves to drains and school kids faced arrests.

‘Humane’ is a new six-part audio drama from Polly Creed based on this incredible true story, starring Marcia Lecky (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time), Francesca Isherwood (The Worst Witch, The Catherine Tate Show), and Dr Who star, Louise Jameson.

A timely and urgent story about animal rights, community and the issues that divide and connect us. Episode one available NOW > https://www.truename.co.uk/humanepodcast

‘A rich experience… with obdurate humanity.’ – Spyinthestalls

The audio drama is being hosted by the Arcola Theatre, The Pleasance, Compassion in World Farming, Theatre Deli Sheffield, Clapham Omnibus, and True Name Theatre.
