Sometimes you are lucky enough to stumble upon a little gem, and this was a polished diamond. Mathur gave a flawless performance.
Green Room Reviews
Every night in New Delhi, Uday Kumar (UK) answers panicked calls to the Goldmine Crypto GB Helpline fantasising about being British himself, filling his YouTube channel with visions of a sophisticated new life of affluence, fish and chips and tea with the royals. Then, a chance conversation one tea break reveals how he might make it all a reality. At dawn a mere week later, he leaves the call centre forever and boards his first ever flight, to take his place amongst the English.
What happens next is the subject of Mohit Mathur’s hilarious and poignant one-man-play of high hopes humbled in Hounslow and an influencer stripped of influence amidst the brutal reality of the UK care sector, asking how and why, each year, hundreds of young men like UK vanish without trace.
A rare chance to rethink much you’ve assumed about those who hope to live amongst us in a first piece from an exciting new playwright and West End performer, in collaboration with one the UK's most experienced theatre makers.
Stay after the show for a Q&A with writer and performer Mohit Mathur. Free to attend, just stay in your seat at the end of the show.

****
A smart, affecting piece of theatre—funny and thought-provoking in equal measure. It navigates identity, migration and belonging with heart and honesty.
