This Home- Kings Cross

About

This Home" is a poignant and uplifting play set in a children’s home on the verge of closure. The story explores the lives of its young residents—a mix of bookworms, gamers, silent musicians, and one phone-obsessed girl—whose world is disrupted by the arrival of a mysterious new girl through "The Door." When the children learn the home is closing, they band together to stage a talent show in a desperate attempt to save it. Through music, dance, and storytelling, they find strength in one another, overcoming personal struggles and forging unbreakable bonds. Despite their efforts, they fall short of their financial goal, forcing them to confront the reality of their separation. As they prepare to leave. With humor, heartbreak, and resilience, "This Home" captures the universal themes of friendship, family, and the necessity of growing up, even in the face of disappointment. It’s a celebration of the strength found in community and the hope that can arise even in the darkest moments.
