| Deema is a good daughter and a loving sister. It's her family that's the problem. In their back garden in Birmingham, her mum Zainab is nurturing plants from Kashmir and her dad Rafique is day-dreaming of million-pound homes in the Cotswolds. Meanwhile, out on the streets, her mixed up brother Tariq is rapidly going from bad to worse. She's doing her best to hold it all together, but it's time for them to learn a few home truths. Deadeye paints a fresh and uncompromising portrait of modern life, exposing the misunderstandings and hypocrisies that divide the generations. | |||||

Synopsis: | In October 2005 the rumour of a rape sparked disturbances in Lozells, Birmingham, that led to the killing of one man, widespread damage and a fracture between two communities that had previously appeared to be living happily alongside one another. Inspired by the views, hopes and fears of local people connected to or affected by the disturbances, These Four Streets is an engaging and hopeful play that highlights a community's fight to stay together. A collaboration between six young female writers, These Four Streets explores the power of rumour and what it's like to live in a place that has been written off. | |||||
