She copies. He mimics. They shed. At border control, they strip off her heritage coat with a smile. ‘Don’t you want me, baby?’ But who really gets to cross, to stay, to be accepted, and at what cost?
Suspended in a liminal desert of identity, five conditional citizens navigate the strange rituals of border crossings with satire and sorrow. Framed by the shadows of Brexit and the government’s hostile immigration policies, the performance becomes a timely and provocative response to a world where identity is continually negotiated, stripped back, and reassembled.
Created by Zoo Indigo with an ensemble of performers from migratory contexts, this multidisciplinary piece weaves movement, multilingual spoken word and live music into a politically charged exploration of home and the surreal choreography of borders.
