Cardboard Citizens are back with another Hostel Tour running between 18th October and 17th December!  Book a FREE performance for your hostel.

This year’s show, ‘Or Am I Alone?’ by award winning playwright Lizzie Nunnery, will introduce three characters:

• Young Suzanne, searching for escape in London
• Trainee Social Worker Lucy, who wants to use her own experiences to help the people she works with;
• Successful Daniel, whose business is sinking fast.  

What do they have in common?  Who do we feel compassion for?  How do we resolve our own problems, never mind those of others? Our Hostel Tour productions are not typical theatrical performances:

• All our actors have experience of homelessness
• All our shows are based on the real life experiences of homeless people we’ve worked with
• Cardboard Citizens are the UK’s leading practitioner of Forum Theatre, an interactive style where audience members are encouraged to get up on stage and offer their own approach to the lead character’s situation.

Last year we visited over 40 hostels and day centres in London, garnering much praise:

  “The ladies talked about the show for days after.  They remember you from the previous year, and also remember the storylines.  Thank you all so much – you’re great!” Salvation Army Hopetown

“Brilliant performance!  The taking part is very important – it’s good to think around different problems.” 240 Project

“The whole idea of the project is fantastic, the stories are truthful and the acting really complements the play.  The Forum after was really empowering and entertaining.  Also, knowing that Cardboard Citizens’ organization provide so much more help is very good.  The help goes well beyond tapping the creative abilities of the audience.” Anchor House

Book now to make sure you don’t miss out on the opportunity to have Cardboard Citizens perform in your hostel this year!

The show is free of charge, all we ask of you is:

·         A performance space of at least 5 metres width by 6 metres depth, 3 metres between floor and ceiling
·         An audience of at least 30% or 12 of your service users (whichever is the greater).
