Westbound

Westbound asks what happens when we are uprooted and repotted.

Following three generations of women as they grapple with what it means to belong in England, the play explores their increasingly tangled relationships as they find themselves doomed to repeat the histories they are determined to evade. Haunted by their hasty departure from Hong Kong and the lives they have left behind, the boundaries between past and present quickly dissolve.

Soon enough, the family's fragile home begins to reverberate with the ghosts of the past.

Written and directed by Sasha Ranawake, Westbound offers a moving exploration of displacement, memory and reconciliation, marking Splinters Productions’ third original play.
