Little Echoes - The Hope Theatre

"He looked the same as anyone else. Any of the other ones who come in. White boys. So I didn’t clock anything different, cos there wasn’t anything different. How was I meant to know?”

Shajenthran’s brother has had acid thrown in his face and Shaj is out for revenge. Danielle's teenage crush on a pop idol develops into an illicit
relationship, 'professional mentoring' becoming something much darker. June has spent twenty years serving the private needs of the super wealthy, but her new assignments confront her with the questions she’s spent a lifetime running from.

When their paths cross it is not something any of them will forget. Filled with love, coercion, loneliness and obsession, Little Echoes takes you through the city as you’ve never seen it before. A city of deep shadows, darker intentions, and where anything can change in the night...

Written by Tom Powell, winner of the OTR National Radio Drama Award, Footlights’ Harry Porter Prize, and directed by Stephen Bailey (European Theatre Convention Scholar 2018), Little Echoes is a searing new play that articulates the anxieties of contemporary living through a kaleidoscopic tale of grief and loss.   

Little Echoes will premiere at the Hope Theatre  in February 2019, an incredible opportunity for our team of emerging artists to bring this new work to life for a three-week run in one of London's best Fringe venues. 

Our fundraising campaign for Little Echoes is partnered with Beyond the Streets, a UK-based charity who see the possibility of life Beyond sexual exploitation. Beyond the Streets has been partnering with women on their journey out of sexual exploitation since 1999. Our vision is ‘to see a world where people are free from exploitation, and where those involved in prostitution have the option to pursue genuine alternatives, free from constraints such as drug use, abusive relationships and poverty’ .

Your support will enable us to deliver an incredible premiere for Little Echoes, and ensure that our production team have the means to produce an unforgettable piece of new theatre. If our campaign is successful 50% of the funds we raise will be donated directly to Beyond the Streets, to contribute towards the incredible work they do in helping women find support, and a fufilling life after experiencing sexual exploitation.

Thank you!
