The Corner Shop

“Incense sticks and Imperial Leather soap. Fresh ginger, dried chillies and cassava chips. Caribbean vegetables, gaudy penny sweets, cards for all occasions.

Welcome to the corner shop: part grocery store, part Aladdin’s cave, and part community centre.

A cast of aspiring shopkeepers – English, Indian, Iranian, Caribbean and Polish – invite you into their lives and living rooms as they set up shop in the Black Country fighting to adapt and survive in a fast changing world.”

It’s “a promenade performance inspired by real-life stories from the world of the corner shop”
