Get real

This week on CW, Mark Carrigan reports from an event in London featuring philosopher Charles Taylor, and argues that his thinking overlooks real tensions underlying both secularism and multiculturalism, and Sharmini Brookes is inspired by Barbara Ehrenreich’s rejection of tyrannical ‘positive-thinking’ at a secular sermon, following Dan Travis’ review of Ehrenreich’s book on CW last week. Matt Trueman has more from the London International Mime Festival. And also in London theatre, Giulia Merlo on The Little Dog Laughed, Miriam Gillinson on The Caretaker, and Timandra Harkness on The Rake’s Progress at the Royal Opera.
