New work from 'Yemeni-Scouse' writer, activist and performer, Amina Atiq.

The Bluecoat

The Third House: heartbreaker between love-mates of Yemeni and British identities, bilingual tongues and musical accents alive in a football fanatic terrace home of Liverpool, Toxteth. Amina Atiq’s photogenic live-performance anthology lives between houses; inherited and existing national anthems; exploring her Arabness of fragmented memories in a dark-tender migration journey from a colonised Aden to 1960s Liverpool port.This passage is a reimagination between her war-torn child- home and her conflicting Muslim identity in a western society after the heightened events of 9/11; shaping her adolescent political life. Underpinned by biographical key events and intergenerational exchanges, Amina impersonates a lifeguard to save her third house from drowning.Accompanied by captioned short film of building bricks &amp; henna fingertips. Film produced by Screen writer Eman Diab &amp; Videographer Abdullrhman Hassona. Show supported &amp; directed by Saphena Aziz.Content Warnings: Key events of Islamophobia, police brutality &amp; racismNote: the event at the Bluecoat will be recorded, potentially including shots of audience members.
