POT - Ovalhouse London

What is it?

Rua Arts presents POT at the Ovalhouse in London, from Tuesday 9th to Saturday 20th October.

Restless new thriller POT, from Ambreen Razia (The Diary of a Hounslow Girl), reveals the hidden lives of Britain’s invisible children; adrift in the care system and at the mercy of gang culture.

Louisa wakes up on lock down, surrounded by debris from last night’s blow out. Josh has vanished but she is not alone and she’s beginning to feel the heat.

POT is part of Ovalhouse’s autumn season which will explore how artists, in varying forms, are inspired by the complex ideas of who provides care, who needs our care, and the challenges that are faced when this care is stripped away.
