Althea Theatre Presents THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE at the Brick Lane Theatre Festival
Hannah was a teacher before she moved to the UK. Now she works in a pub. Jordan lost his mum six months ago. Six days ago, he lost his job, too. With nothing to keep him here, Jordan walks into Hannah's pub looking for an answer to the question: is it time to go home? And, if the answer is 'yes' - where exactly is that?
Combining award-winning theatre with a stunning live soundtrack, There's No Place Like is a bittersweet and timely play about longing, belonging and immigration.
Following a sold out run in London's West End and a critically acclaimed international tour, Althea Theatre are proud to present the American premiere of There's No Place Like this summer before their upcoming US premiere in Hollywood and tour to LA, San Diego and Tijuana.
