When I speak of Lewisham
Junior Theatre Makers (age 10 - 14), May 2025




Written and performed by young people, When I Speak of Lewisham shines a light on how imagination, community, and activism intersect in a borough under pressure. It’s a vibrant, funny, and thought-provoking journey through the streets, stories, and struggles of an absurdist Lewisham, told through the voices of its young people. Follow them as they cut through tower blocks; haggle in the market place; and ask the questions in everyone's hearts… “Can things get better?”
