A Way Home | 17 Jun
Hamsteels Community Centre • 3 April 2022
The fight for a place to belong.
In 1951 a third of County Durham’s villages are classified as ‘D’, expected to die quietly. A countywide fight lasting over 25 years becomes a 12-month journey at Bet’s kitchen table as her family grapple with identity, loss and belonging in this tender drama.
A Way Home is a new play written by Durham based Christina Castling, directed by Jonluke McKie with set design by Alison Ashton and new music composed by Roma Yagnik. It is a play all about home and what happens when it feels like that home is being taken away. It is about community, family and how they impact on your sense of identity.
