Half of extra schools spending in the last decade has gone on special needs and three-quarters of England's councils face bankruptcy over the costs. As parents chase support for their children, Send is out of control.

The Red Flag Over London: How Britain Handed Beijing the Keys to the Kingdom Thu Aug 28, 2025 17:35 | Clive Pinder
London's new Chinese Embassy looks less like a diplomatic mission and more like the command post of a hostile power, says Clive Pinder. Is Britain now so weak that it will stand for this?

Jesus: The Guantanamo Years
At Project Arts Centre

'incisive satire' - The Dubliner ‘A Revelation’ *****

The Bush administration is refusing to comment on allegations that Jesus Christ, Son of God, was detained as an ‘illegal combatant’ in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. In 2002, U.S. immigration officials reported questioning a bearded, Middle-Eastern man who - when asked to state the purpose of his visit - informed them that he was ‘on a mission from God’ which involved ‘dying as a religious martyr’.

The man was promptly arrested under the Patriot Act and sent to Guantanamo. Only after he left Cuba - in circumstances which remain unclear - was the man identified as Jesus. In a move that is likely to embarrass the already beleaguered U.S. President, Christ plans to talk exclusively about His experiences in a forthcoming show at the Project Arts Centre, entitled Jesus: The Guantanamo Years.

Abie Philbin Bowman’s one man show parallels Jesus the preacher and Jesus the comedian. Observing that laughter is the ultimate celebration of life, creation and human intelligence, Philbin Bowan asks the question ‘So why does no major religion encourage laughter?’
Expect plenty of laughs, some songs, a bit of audience participation and a Pythonesque puppet-show in this debut performance of Jesus: The Guantanamo Years.

Jesus: The Guantanamo Years runs at Project Arts Centre
CUBE @ 8.15pm
Tickets €10/8
3rd-8th July, 2006
Preview 4th July, €8/6
