BACKGAMMON FOR BEGINNERS
A breathtaking mix of acrobatics, drama, dance, live music and puppetry explodes onto the Queen’s Theatre stage in Backgammon for Beginners.
The award-winning So & So Circus tell a gripping story of romance, revolution and the true adventures of an extraordinary man who lived his life without a safety net.
November 1976. A military jet arrives in London and a bemused looking Iranian man in flares steps on to the tarmac. He holds a single suitcase and blinks in this new land. Over the next few years his attempt to understand the differences between his past and present will lead to broken hearts, secret loves and multiple children. All this whilst jumping out of hotel windows, introducing backgammon to London bars and stopping trains with his bare hands.
