A Map of the World is a clever play by the successful British playwright David Hare. Two narratives are interwoven. On the one hand we see a progressive journalist locking horns with a conservative writer at a world conference on poverty in Bombay. On the other we see how the romanticized version of this confrontation is staged years later on a film set in England.

A Map of the World is about opposing views, how the West and the Third World see each other, and about how various journalists and writers handle fact and fiction. The story sparkles with wry but intelligent humour that responds to current events. The perfect material for an exciting collaboration between Tristero and the KVS.
