Description: 'Detaining Justice' is an interrogatory play about illegal immigration and race, in which the urgent issues are brought to life with humour and compassion. In the offices of the immigration authorities, inside the detention centres, and out in the world where illegal immigrants are working, Agbaje examines Britain's tangled immigration system and the lives of those who slip through the cracks. 'Detaining Justice' was first performed as part of the 'Not Black and White' season at the Tricycle Theatre, London, in 2009.
