A brand new theatre show exploring self-discovery, belonging and the 'hidden homeless' is coming to Leeds this autumn.

The Lodger is a thought provoking, sometimes tragic, sometimes hilarious tale which follows the journey of the show's eponymous character who is 'hidden homeless' - a term referring to someone who has no fixed address.

The Lodger spends her time travelling from place to place without any sense of stability; she is relentless and running into the unknown.

The show, which contains original music, captivating storytelling, side-splitting comedy and a healthy dose of physical theatre, reflects on the ideas of acceptance and the enduring power of home.

Through The Lodger's eyes the audience meet a variety of eccentric characters also trying to find their way home including a Sunday school teacher, a holiday entertainer and a landlady. This menagerie of characters are all yearning for a sense of belonging and all have something to say.

This important production arrives at a time when a record number of homeless children are being temporarily housed in the UK and when women make up two thirds of London's "hidden homeless".

The show itself is the brainchild of Liverpool-based artist Dora Colquhoun. Her most recent show ADHD: The Musical sold out venues across the country and she is hoping that this new production similarly captures audience's imaginations; asking those in attendance to consider consider their own relationship with 'home'.
