Three new plays from three of the UK's most celebrated playwrights. All rooted in West London, the plays explore race, identity and our sense of place and purpose, presented together as one piece, Out West.

The Overseas Student by Tanika Gupta
London. 1888. An 18-year-old Gandhi has just arrived from India to study Law. Miles from home, his wife and his family, we see him navigate a time of uncertainty, growth and opportunity. As he builds a new life, he explores the joys of money, food and women whilst facing the struggles of class and imperialism. Gupta’s sharp and profound play is an insight into the teenage years of a man we know will grow up to be one of the most significant figures in history.

Blue Water and Cold and Fresh by Simon Stephens
London. 2020. A walk back in time. A walk that may change everything he’s ever believed.
In the wake of city lockdown living and the Black Lives Matter protests, one man’s journey across London raises difficult truths he has to confront. The death of a loved one. His father’s racism. His own white privilege. This heartfelt piece explores what it means to be a father, husband and son.

Go, Girl by Roy Williams
London. 2020. Working as a security guard at Westfield and a mother to a teenage daughter, Donna sees her life as unremarkable.
