Posted by News Editor
Sunday, October 16, 2005

Our attention has been drawn to a video of a theatre production drama Denial based on a case history of a daughter who turns on her parents accusing them of sexually abusing her as a child. The play begins with the end - a hysterical daughter screaming accusations into a telephone message machine, and then traces her sessions with a therapist to whom at first she sceptically denies such abuse, only gradually succumbing to 'memories' of it having taken place. In between is a distraught family trying to understand and come to terms with the trauma of false accusations. The video is availaible from heritage theatre priced £16.99
