the Lodger

Touring September-October 2024

In the end do we ever really own anything? 

Dora Colquhoun, creator of ADHD The Musical presents this brand new work about home and belonging. 

A restless deer leaves home, running into the unknown. This thought provoking, sometimes tragic, sometimes hilarious tale follows the deer's journey as it encounters a menagerie of characters, all yearning for a sense of belonging. Through live original music, captivating storytelling, and side-splitting comedy, The Lodger explores themes of self-discovery, acceptance, and the enduring power of home.

Prepare to be moved, probed, and inspired by this unforgettable theatrical experience. As you are invited to look at your own mask and ask 'Does it still fit?'
