Places I Never Think About is a queer retelling of myths and folklore from Eastern Europe using polyphonic singing, live music, storytelling & puppetry.
Three characters from Eastern European folklore come to life, sharing their stories that draw inspiration from the creatives’ experiences of migration. Through the narrative, we delve deep into the complexities of belonging, guilt, and the families we leave behind. Told through musical storytelling, polyphony and puppetry, “Places I Never Think About” speaks to the child within us, invoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder.
The show leaves audiences with a sense of connection and joy by inviting them to join a Hungarian Dance House (communal dance) to end the evening on.
TRANSIT is a London-based queer multidisciplinary theatre collective founded on a shared goal to bring about change by representing often overlooked communities. Through joy & playfulness, our practice encompasses an intersectional approach in order to challenge the pervasive structures of oppression. Working with oral history & personal narratives explored in music, movement, poetry & storytelling, TRANSIT performances aim to cultivate an environment where varying cultures and lived experiences can come together.
