Critically acclaimed in New York, Vienna and Edinburgh, this one-man show about an Iraqi immigrant explores what it means to be ‘invisible’ in our society.
An Iraqi immigrant tells his story. His name is Sad. He lives here illegally. At night he walks our streets and sells roses. He loves to speak English but nobody listens. Will you?
Opening tonight at the Arcola Theatre, the piece will run until 15 August.
Location: The Arcola, 27 Arcola Street, E8 2DJ
Starting time: 8.15 PM
