“An adventure. An education. A shared journey. Madly important work.”

“The writing and performers were fantastic. It made me feel so nostalgic, happy but also hyper aware of the erasure of culture & neighbourhood in LDN. The safekeeping of these and its importance. I loved the site-specific element.”

“An experience outside of mine. A nuanced window into growing up mixed race in England. Insightful & creative.”

“It made me think how precious a gift community is and the ability to express it.”
