“Intimate and extraordinary journeys of migration, culture and belonging.”
A live performance taking place within the Wedgwood Institute, Burslem. Inspired by the experiences of the cast members who have moved, or been moved, to Stoke-on-Trent. You Are Here is a promenade performance – the audience will move around the building from story to story.
The Wedgwood Institute was built in 1865 as a place for educating the hard-working folk of Burslem in science, business and the arts. It is about to be fully restored by the The Prince’s Regeneration Trust and this performance will be one of the only opportunities to experience the current charm of the building before work commences.
