‘Pimlico’ is a two hander, one-act, inter-disciplinary play that explores themes of identity, reconciliation, inter-faith marriages, and the complexities of family bonds.
In a world where cultural boundaries blur and family ties stretch across continents, two siblings, Maya and Jonathan, stand at the crossroads of their shared history. Separated by an ocean and years of misunderstanding, the half-siblings find themselves reunited in their childhood home, as they meet for the first time at their father’s funeral.
The funeral where cultures collide and beliefs are questioned, and the living claim a part of the dead, a brother and a sister, share more than a dead father and his eulogy.

"Our children live in the most deprived ward in London and their parents cannot afford to pay for the classes and activities many more privileged children enjoy after school and at the weekends. A free-to-access youth group run by a local theatre in a professional setting is an incredible opportunity."
