The Constituent description
‘I am not your punch bag! I am a Member of Parliament!
An MP with an instinct for compassion.
An ex-serviceman with a life in free fall.
And a parliamentary protection officer who’s having none of it.
This volatile new play stars BAFTA Award winner Anna Maxwell Martin (Motherland, Line of Duty) as a hard-working opposition backbencher whose ideals of public office are tested by the demands of a man in crisis, played by James Corden (One Man, Two Guvnors, The History Boys).
Directed by Matthew Warchus (A Christmas Carol, Matilda The Musical) and written by Joe Penhall (Blue/Orange, Mood Music), The Constituent deconstructs politics, panic alarms and the conflict between public service and personal safety.
