Census

This is what happens when a working-class community tells its own story. 
 
A bus ride. A bingo card. A memory you didn’t know you shared.

This is our neighbourhood, not the one in the media, but the one shaped by our stories, our laughter and our silence.
 
Award-winning duo Malandra Jacks invite you into a world of spellbinding projection,  real voices and unapologetic heart. Census is part theatre, part time capsule: a celebration of communities rarely seen on stage.
 
Funny, intimate and defiant, Census is a love letter to working-class communities, a call to remember who we are and what we carry with us.
