Description: "Bullet doesn't want to call a hostel home. Eritrean Girl was smuggled here in a lorry. Singing Boy dreams of seeing his name in lights and Garden Boy just wants to feel safe. In 2013, homelessness amongst young people in the UK is at a record high, so when the Big Society doesn't work - where do you go? An inner-city high-rise hostel, Target East, offers a roof. Home brings to life the unheard voices of the young residents and staff who live and work behind the anonymous concrete walls. Using real testimonials alongside beatboxing and R&B, Nadia Fall's bold verbatim play asks what it really means to call somewhere home."--Page [4] of cover
