Revised 2022 version including additional testimony from Ruth Dearnley
(CEO of STOP THE TRAFFIK)
One Million to STOP THE TRAFFIK tells true stories of people who are
trafficked. Sunni and Whinney, at just six and eight years old, were
sold by their parents and their story inspired the formation of the
charity STOP THE TRAFFIK.
Their mantra? 'People should not be bought and sold'.
One Million to STOP THE TRAFFIK goes on to tell the incredible true
story of the charity's determined quest to get 1,000,000 signatures to
enable them to go to the United Nations and call on governments to fight
human trafficking.
'I was blown-away. It was like watching Slumdog Millionaire only this
was live theatre... the young actors' hearts are beating and breaking in
front of you. One Million to STOP THE TRAFFIK should be recognised as
Mark Wheeller's most far-reaching, insightful and accomplished play to
date.' Paul Mills, Head of Drama, Westgate School, Winchester
'The hour long show was spellbinding and quite disturbing... it was one
of the best productions I have seen in a long time, anywhere.' Ian
Murray, Chief Editor Daily Echo
