SUMMARY:We Are The Lions Mr Manager
DESCRIPTION:We Are The Lions\, Mr. Manager!’ is the remarkable story of J
 ayaben Desai the inspirational leader of the 1976-78 Grunwick Film Process
 ing Factory Strike.\n\nShe was recently amongst the women who have had the
  biggest impact on women’s lives over the past 70 years as part of the R
 adio 4 Women’s Hour Power List.\n\nShe brought the issue of workplace ex
 ploitation and racism to the fore\, challenged the perception of Asian wom
 en being inherently passive and docile\, whilst having the measure of the 
 most brutish and charmless of her managers\, telling them:\n\n“What you 
 are running here is not a factory\, it is a zoo. But in a zoo\, there are 
 many types of animals. Some are monkeys who dance on your fingertips\, oth
 ers are lions who can bite your head off. We are the lions\, Mr. Manager!
 ”\n\nShe not only stood up for workers’ rights and against oppression 
 with selfless dedication\, but with her steadfast resolve\, she turned the
  dispute into a national movement for human rights and dignity inspiring f
 uture generations.\n\nThese two nights are the only performances in Sussex
