Synopsis:

Do you think you're going to get married in a church or a temple? I think you should get married on an elephant and wear a sari thing like that pussycat doll.

The accusation of a Black teenager sparks disturbance on the South London streets. While tensions rise, a couple from very different backgrounds navigate the minefield between them and their families.

Joint winner of the 2011 Alfred Fagon award (under its former title SW11), The Westbridge showcases an array of multiple voices with humour, style and a piercing edge. Presenting a microcosm of multicultural society, this depiction of modern day London's melting-pot spans ethnicities, religions, generations and outlooks.

A very real, convincing drama of human individuals underpins this ambitious, far-reaching and relevant play. The Westbridge explores the intricacies of living side by side, and looks at racial and cultural distinctions with humour and bite.
