The Future Looks Bright

In an era where migration, exile, and political oppression remain urgent global issues, Büke Erkoç plays a young immigrant woman caught in the currents of history, as she grapples with choices that define her existence. A shape-shifting single suitcase transforms into a high-rise building, a bed, a consulate kiosk, even a coffin, as this visually striking piece of object theatre brings to life a story of exile, memory and resistance. Devised from Turkish writer Sebnem Isigüzel’s novel Hanene Ay Dogacak. ‘A poetic physicality runs through Büke Erkoç’s veins’ (Erdem Avsar, UNESCO Resources Blog and Briefings).
