Actress-comedian Lubna Kerr explores her family's journey, sharing the challenges encountered with humour and emotion. Tickbox 2 raises issues about race, perception and identity. Like many migrants they used food to make friends, but when no one had heard of a samosa, how could the barriers be broken down? This newly updated version, which is re-directed by Jairus Obayomi, explores the lived experience of growing up as a person of colour in Scotland. It has the potential to engage a wider, non-traditional, non-white theatre audience whilst sharing an important story of race and stereotyping to more traditional audiences.
