Peaceophobia

Peaceophobia is an unapologetic response to rising Islamophobia around the world. Part car-meet, part-theatre, the show explores how you find peace in a world that tells you who you are. Growing up in the shadow of the Bradford Riots, 9/11 and police harassment, cars and faith are a sanctuary, an escape, an expression for three Muslim Pakistani men. Staged in a carpark with a Supra, a Golf and a classic Nova, Peaceophobia brings together cars and theatre with cinematic lighting and an original electronic sound score. Presented by Commonwealth and Fuel. Part of the Horizon Showcase.
