Khandan - Family: The Shame Generation

Every sip of tea takes you somewhere new… 

Sid Akbar's solo show travels through time, memory and belonging Drawn from his own experience of growing up queer in a Pakistani Muslim family in Bradford. From fear in his Mum's cosy kitchen to hope in a sparse Manchester bedsit, join Captain Sid's continuing* voyage of self-discovery. Family duty, clouds of shame, queer spaces that feel like home and the complicated truth that chosen family can hurt you too.

Funny, tender and bracingly honest, this is a story of love.
