'Legacies' is the latest production from Open Stage. Broaching the subject of social inheritance, the play asks how the actions and deeds of one generation hold ramifications for the next. Set against a backdrop of greater events stretching over almost a century it follows five individual stories. Starting with an execution for cowardice in World War I and culminating with recent events in Iraq, the play also takes in the Windrush influx of West Indian immigrants in the Fifties, Baked bean adverts of the Sixties, the Winter of Discontent under Callaghan's Labour Government in the Seventies, and Rubik's Cube, Wham, The Clash and the Millennium along the way.
