Blending the raw energy of grime, drill and Afrobeat with soulful gospel and orchestral scores, Stuck is a bold new musical that explores home and community, telling a deeply personal and politically charged story about community, nostalgia and the fight to hold onto the places – and people – that shape us.

At its core is the relationship between an ambitious young man and his barber uncle, whose shop – and way of life – are threatened by a looming redevelopment project. When a letter from the council arrives promising a bright new future, their clashing perspectives spark a battle neither of them realises is already lost. As the uncle’s early dementia brings hidden struggles to the surface, the nephew is forced to confront what home really means – before it disappears forever.

Stuck takes you beyond the big headlines and into the inner thoughts of everyday people, articulated by a powerful narrative and catchy but moving songs.
