Khalid Abdalla’s audacious avant-garde solo show is not so much a meditation on belonging as its opposite. Somewhere in its multimedia depths of images, audio voiceovers, personal stories, song and dance, we hear Theresa May’s infamous words on citizenship: “If you believe you are a citizen of the world, you are a citizen of nowhere.”
Abdalla brings an intelligent twist to this thesis, asking where you belong when the country in which you were born or raised does not want you or has become too dangerous for you to stay. How does it feel to belong in Nowhere-land?
