About this show
From the Fringe First winning Mulberry Theatre Company, One House on Brick Lane is an original play rooted in East London. Set in a single house, centuries collide with the voices of past and present. In 1985, a Bangladeshi family faces eviction amid protests. Through stories told by Huguenot weavers of anti-fascist resistance, migration and community struggle, the house reveals its memories. Drawing on oral histories and lived experience, this powerful production asks who gets to belong when home is under threat. Created by young East London voices, it celebrates resilience, humour and collective hope.
