Kwame Kwei-Armah's play returns to the Tricycle following a successful run earlier this year.
When West Indian pensioner Alfred Morris is kicked out of his daughter's Croydon house, he returns to his Willesden home to find he's been gifted a Polish cleaner/home help. Finding the girl eager to learn the ways of her new land, cantankerous and xenophobic Alfred realises that he may indeed still have a role in life – he could teach Maria to be British, and if he succeeds, maybe she might help him in the most unexpected way.
Set against the music of Nat King Cole, this is an immigrant's tale of beginnings, endings and Britishness.
