London Bridge stabbings 2017. 8 dead, 48 injured, millions around the world affected.

At these challenging times of war and fear, how do we choose to respond? A small group of people from different cultures, nationalities and gender identities, find their way through life in London and join a weekly community theatre class. Their lives intersect, their stories get vocalised, their secrets revealed, creating a microcosmos, allowing them to ignore the reality of atrocities in their city.

A piece of meta-theatre where a group of actors take on the roles of participants in a theatre class to be ‘transformed’. What is our role as audience members, sitting outside of ‘their new reality’ looking at them ?

A play about the power of community theatre on people’s lives.
