Amnesty International UK Director Kate Allen says "People who seek asylum here are so often demonised in the media or referred to as faceless statistics. This play brings those people to life and gives them a voice.
"The Container deservedly won Amnesty's Freedom of Expression Award for bringing these issues to a wide audience. We're delighted to be associated with these performances at the Young Vic."
