Suitable for ages 14+
Based on the infamous 1729 essay by Jonathan Swift, A Modest Proposal is a satirical comedy starring Jed Murray. Set in the boardroom of a strategic Government task force assembled to deal with challenging social issues, Johnny is a very convincing presenter who has applied blue sky thinking, shifted the mindset and has come up with a solution where everyone wins. But will the board agree with his modest proposal?
