January 4 at 1:00pm
Small Island
Adapted by Helen Edmundson
Based on the novel by Andrea Levy

Small Island embarks on a journey from Jamaica to Britain, through the Second World War to 1948 – the year the HMT Empire Windrush docked at Tilbury. The play follows three intricately connected stories. Hortense yearns for a new life away from rural Jamaica, Gilbert dreams of becoming a lawyer, and Queenie longs to escape her Lincolnshire roots. Hope and humanity meet stubborn reality as the play traces the tangled history of Jamaica and the UK.​

Please note: Small Island contains strong and offensive language of a racial nature.

Estimated run time: 
Approx. 3hrs 10min including 20min intermission.
