Preparation
Read a bit about the play Greenland. The National Theatre's website has background information about it and the playwrights who wrote it.

Talkaoke, presented by ‘The People Speak’, is a unique interactive discussion format for sharing views, engaging with a variety of different perspectives and debating with other members of the audience.
