Live Event - The Home

THE HOME by Gill Parsons

Wednesday 11th February @ 7pm

In the impoverished, post-war London of the 1950's, seven-year-old Uma lives with her brothers and her working-class parents; Ronnie and Shahine. When Uma is removed from the family home by the state and placed indefinitely in a rural, convalescent home, a personal odyssey begins. Uma must contend with the formidable Sister, racist bullying and a hostile environment. Cut off from her family; armed only with her trusty teddy bear; Uma will learn a new meaning for the word home.

Writer Gill Parsons is a retired lecturer and magistrate. The Home was developed from her own lived experience as a child.
