When every citizen is ordered to return to their place of birth, Where We Began examines where we could end up.
The UK’s first Theatre Company of Sanctuary, Stand and Be Counted present a wild and vivid vision of the future, combining storytelling, movement and live music. Five performers from across the globe challenge existing notions of ‘home’ in this multilingual celebration of personal identity.
“It is getting mine, and other people’s, stories heard … If people come together and talk we can overcome this massive injustice” – Read an interview with Tafadzwa Muchenje at The Reviews Hub.
Commissioned by Camden People’s Theatre, Cast and Theatre in the Mill. Supported by Arts Council England and winner of the Bridging the Gap scheme, led by ARC Stockton.
