Ten Londoners bring the stories of their lives to this arrestingly original collaboration between artist-filmmaker Andrea Luka Zimmerman and theatre-maker Adrian Jackson.

Filled with loss, resistance and hope, their experiences – both unusual and all too commonplace – are shared through poetry, dialogue and performance. They dance together, steal together, eat together, celebrate their differences and come together at Shoreditch’s Nomadic Community Gardens to devise their own provocative performance pieces.

The lines between one person’s story and another’s performance are blurred and the borders between reality and fiction are porous. This is a profound reflection on ordinary lives. This is an uncommon story on common ground.
