Jennifer Irons

It's a roller disco about immigration. Obvs. Jennifer Irons, a UK immigrant from Canada, is told after Brexit to "go home". But she hasn't lived there in 25 years, and the kicker: Canada doesn't want her either. Apparently, she's too old, too broke and not sporty enough? Channeling her childhood hero, 'Canada's sweetheart' Elizabeth Manley, Jennifer straps on roller skates and dives helmet-first into a glittering world of freewheeling misfits. With German techno, dancing salmon and absurd humour, award-winning choreographer and dancer Jennifer embarks on a chaotic, darkly surreal quest through colonialism, identity and the search for belonging.
