Jez Butterworth On The Birth Of Jerusalem | Tortoise ThinkIn 

This clip is from 'The story behind the best British play ever: a ThinkIn with Jez Butterworth' you can watch the full session here: • Suicide In Healthcare:...
Since its original 2009 production, Jerusalem by Jez Butterworth has been repeatedly hailed as one of the greatest theatrical works of the century.
This examination of English identity and rural life through the story of Johnny “Rooster” Byron, is fuelled by hedonism, defiance, a lot of swearing and a catalogue of tall tales.
As Mark Rylance returns to his career-defining role as Rooster Byron in the long-awaited revival of Jerusalem, join us for a very special ThinkIn with Jez Butterworth where we’ll explore how this masterwork is still relevant today, and what it says about modern Britain. What would Rooster make of a post-Brexit UK, preoccupied with covid, culture wars and partying politicians? Is he the anti-hero we need now more than ever?
