CAMDEN PEOPLE'S THEATRE 2016
RICH MIX 2016
THEATRE DELICATESSEN 2017
Home Is Where... was “Born In D&D” and scratched at Camden People’s Theatre and The Cockpit in January & February 2016. We explored the idea of an Embassy for Third Culture Kids, using headphone verbatim performance, original music, and ensemble movement.
Directed by Amy Clare Tasker
Written by Guleraana Mir
Music by Yaiza Varona
Movement by Paula Paz
Featuring Sharlit Deyzac, Joanna Greaney, Anna-Maria Nabirye, Mark Ota, and Kal Sabir.
With support from Kings Place Music Foundation and Rich Mix, we spent the summer of 2016 devising a full-length performance. We framed the verbatim interviews in a dystopian future: if they're sending everyone back where they came from, where do you go if you don't know where home is?

Taking apart our political dystopia, we remade a simpler framework for the interviews which centres the verbatim stories. Working in Theatre Delicatessen's Old Library, away from a proscenium stage, we discovered the power of immersing the audience in an interactive library of stories.
