breaDth Research & Development performance

Set on a multiracial street somewhere in the UK, breaDth combines real with surreal situations during the COVID-19 pandemic. It casts a kaleidoscopic lens on survival through prejudice, violence, racial inequality and the struggle for breath among Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities and families, exacerbated by the pandemic. These recordings were taken during the first Research and Development performance of the play at the Brady Theatre in Tower Hamlets, East London, in June 2022.
