In Guinea, West Africa, Ibrahima discovers that his little brother has secretly run away from school and is heading to Europe. Ibrahima drops everything to go after him, setting off on the migrant routes of the Sahara towards the Mediterranean. Risking his life countless times, Ibrahima encounters the best and worst of humanity along the perilous road.
Celebrated playwright Timberlake Wertenbaker brings Ibrahima Balde and Amets Arzallus Antia‘s award-winning memoir to the stage for the first time. Artistic Director Stella Powell-Jones directs this modern odyssey which sweeps across borders to find a path of hope.
The performance will be followed by a post-show conversation between RSL Fellows Timberlake Wertenbaker and Gabriel Gbadamosi.
Presented in partnership with Jermyn Street Theatre.
