Three strangers. One billboard. Last one standing wins a home. Inspired by a real 1980s endurance contest in which competitors lived on a billboard for months, this show explores what happens when the search for a home becomes a public spectacle. Resonating strongly with today’s housing crisis, the show asks how long people will hold on for the promise of securing a future. This is a chance to see a work-in-progress show from exciting writers from across the UK and Ireland, part of our Shed Originals script development programme in partnership with The Lowry.
