Bewley's Cafe Theatre, Monday 29th September - Saturday 18th October
Ali, a young man from Morocco, spent years making Ireland his home – charming strangers, working countless jobs, and falling in love with the fierce Irish rain. But now two private contractors are escorting him back to Tangier, where imprisonment and worse await him.
As they journey from Rosslare harbour through France and Spain toward the Strait of Gibraltar, Ali makes desperate attempts to escape his fate. Haunted by the family he disappointed—the mother and sisters who scraped together the money for his journey – Ali faces not just deportation, but the shame of returning empty-handed to those who sacrificed for his dreams.
With dark humour and unexpected tenderness, this is a story about belonging, survival and the human cost of exile.
What would you risk for freedom? How far would you go to avoid going home?
