FUGEE by Abi Morgan

When 14-year-old Kojo arrives in London from the Cote d'Ivoire with no papers, no family, and no words in English, he is housed in a refuge for under-age asylum seekers.

The system breaks down.

Kojo finds himself tangled in a web of memories and nightmares, and must struggle for identity in a world where he is alone.

As the United Nations reports that more unaccompanied children sought asylum last year than ever before in history, playwright Abi Morgan's controversial work is more relevant than ever.
