Dial 1 for UK by Mohit Mathur
6 May 2024, 7 pm
Pushkar, like many other call center workers, has one dream: moving to the UK.
What happens to a dream when it becomes reality?
The play explores the immigrant experience, social media's influence, and the sacrifices made in pursuit of distant dreams.
As the show is still under development, the performance will be followed by a relaxed 20 minutes of feedback from the live audience.
This play was developed during the Vital Xposure Wellspring Writing Program, which culminated with a 10-minute showcase in Soho Theatre earlier this year.
