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.

About the show

One House on Brick Lane is an original play by Mulberry Theatre Company, a student and youth company rooted in East London. Set across centuries within a single house, the production weaves together Huguenot weavers, stories of anti-fascist resistance, and a Bangladeshi family facing eviction amid protests in 1985. Drawing on oral histories and lived experience, the play asks who gets to belong when home is under threat, celebrating resilience, humour and collective hope through young East London voices.

Why see this show?

A powerful, community-rooted new play that brings centuries of migration and resistance to life in one house. Thoughtful, warm and relevant, this is the kind of new writing that makes the Fringe essential — urgent stories told by the people who lived them.
