This flagship Kiln Theatre community production brings together the venue’s Intergenerational Company — an extraordinary ensemble of 80 performers aged 6 to 88 — in a large-scale mainstage event to launch the new season.
Blending myth, politics and community storytelling, Sonia Jalaly’s new play explores how places hold memory, identity and resistance. Directed by Kane Husbands and Izzy Rabey, the production fuses theatrical spectacle with deeply human stories rooted in Kilburn itself.
The Kiln Theatre is located in Kilburn, North London. The theatre opened in a converted Forester’s Hall in 1980 and was formerly known as the Tricycle Theatre. In 1987 the theatre was almost totally destroyed by a fire which started in a neighbouring timber yard. Two years later, it was re-built and the front of house facilities were enhanced and expanded. After undergoing a major redevelopment, the theatre reopened in 2018 as the Kiln Theatre under Indhu Rubasingham's leadership.
