The best: Autumn theatre coming to HOME

Presenting ‘a provocative story of desperation and compassion’, Kin‘s follows the epic pilgrimage of Leah, a young girl who left Yemen for Palestine in 1932, as told by her grandson ninety years later. Featuring an international cast performing to a stirring global soundtrack, Kin is a lush, culturally diverse meditation on origins, belonging, identity and destiny.

Charting an investigation into an infamous murder and, in the process, interrogating the nature of modern investigation itself, Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World revisits the unsolved murder of Iranian pop sensation Fereydoun Farrokzhad in the context of today’s internet landscape – specifically the global thirst for true crime content – and considers that which is overlooked in a society which presents everything as knowable.

Adapted by BAFTA Breakthrough Brit Award-winner Vinay Patel, this soaring performance of Chekhov’s poignant classic scatters archetypal Russian melancholy across the cosmos in a story which follows Captain Ramesh and his crew, the latest generation of many to pilot their spacecraft in search of a new home. Upon the miraculously discovery of a habitable planet, Captain Ramesh grows adamant that they cannot leave the vessel, igniting a restless atmosphere which threatens to tip into mutiny.

Promising to ‘put the FUN back into our fundamentally pointless existence’, cult cabaret legends Bourgeois & Maurice return to the HOME stage with a gaudy barrage of optimistic abandon featuring show-stopping outfits, inspired musical numbers and an 8′ pinata in a maximalistic embrace of meaningless hedonism.
