'Jackets' sets out a resonant and poetic counterpoint between two scenes of martyrdom, a powerful dyadic commentary on the politics of sacrifice, with Part One set in eighteenth-century Japan and Part Two in modern Europe. The play produces detailed and human portraits, the force of its argument emerging from their vividly drawn responses and the potent interaction between its two parts. Derived from 'The Village School' scene of Sugawaraby Takeda Zumo, 'Jackets' premiered in 1989 at Lancaster University.
