BBC News - HARDtalk, Natalia Kaliada

Stephen Sackur speaks to Natalia Kaliada, co-founder of the Belarus Free Theatre.

Belarus, Europe's last old-fashioned dictatorship where political dissent gets you arrested. Natalia Kaliada co-founded the Belarus Free Theatre, but is drama a tool of resistance?

HARDtalk speaks to one Belarussian who has refused to be cowed by President Lukashenko's iron fist. Natalia Kaliada co-founded the Belarus Free Theatre almost a decade ago. Directors, actors, even the audience have all faced arrest and imprisonment, but still their shows go on. Is drama an effective tool of resistance?
