Comment by Mike Watson on November 9, 2011 at 7:13pm: Yasmin Alibhai-Brown will be selling and signing copies of her excellent book at the performance this Saturday

Comment by Administrator on October 15, 2011 at 11:45am: Developed with the RSC and following highly successful runs at Stratford, Newcastle, London, and a nationwide tour, Yasmin Alibhai-Brown with Tara present her poignant and impassioned one-woman show.

Provocative and powerful Yasmin Alibhai-Brown is a searing cultural presence and Nowhere to Belong captures with warmth and grit how theatre and Shakespeare helped change her life.

Yasmin is well known for her regular radio and television broadcasts and columns in the Evening Standard and The Independent. Her books include No Place Like Home, Some of My Best Friends (a collection of journalistic writing) and Settler’s Cookbook: Tales of Love, Migration and Food available in 2008. Memorably, in 2003, Yasmin returned her MBE in protest against the war in Iraq.

“Enlightening, funny and moving…beautifully performed” Colin Firth
