Two best friends, from Balaika, Africa, appear in London looking for Shakespeare. Having passed through fire to get there they want to tell him their stories. Shakespeare is gone but his arbiters swoop them up, setting them down them on stage at Shakespeare's Globe in front of an expectant audience. Fame, fortune and the love of two smitten young actresses await. But can they survive the hostile environment? Will their real truths be revealed? In triumphantly energetic ?township' style, two actors play men, women and immigration police in this story of love, friendship, and ambition. Energetic and bare-boned, this South African inspired style of theatre, offers a platform to migrant and mixed heritage theatre makers, drawing the audience into the action, creating a vibrant, engaging theatre experience not to be missed.
