A magical one to one performance over the phone with multi award-winning artist Stacy Makishi. How do we satisfy our longing to touch? How do we continue to make meaningful contact? Will we choose to hold or withhold our love? How can being house-bound set us free?

Homeward (House) Bound offers homemade rituals to help us surf through uncertainty, boredom, re-runs and grief. Mundane encounters with household appliances are suddenly charged with gravity and magic. Familiar actions like opening a window become a moment of transformation; an epiphany along the long road to redemption.

Homeward (House) Bound will set your heart free.

'a performer whose generosity… makes the audience feel uplifted and empowered' - Exeunt Magazine

This production was originally a New Earth Theatre Homemakers commission in association with HOME, Manchester and is developed for Future Arts Centres’ Here & Now presented as part of Normal? Festival of the Brain.


Normal? Festival of the Brain is co-curated by Living Words, Creative Folkestone & Folkestone Fringe. Living Words is an arts & literature charity organisation working with those with a dementia as well as those from isolated backgrounds. Creative Folkestone, is an arts charity dedicated to transforming Folkestone through collective creative activity. We do these festivals to enrich the cultural calendar of our town, bring people together, and connect Folkestone with the wider world. Each year, the Normal? programme and themes are always produced through think-ins, in which anyone is invited to share ideas of what interests them, and what they would like to see happen together.
