26th-28th June, The Backstage Theatre, Mountview, 120 Peckham Hill Street, London SE15 5JT

Maja, an ambitious student from Poland, moves to London in search of a fresh start and a global education. But her idea of life away from home is quickly confronted with the not-so-perfect reality. Constantly challenged by the claustrophobic room, an empty fridge, a dull social life, pressing interrogations from loved ones, and the deafening silence she used to long for, Maja attempts to navigate her new reality, one milestone at a time. As she grapples with issues of identity, cultural connection, and sense of belonging, Maja yearns for a  home away from home and questions what it means to truly ‘belong’.

Belonging(s) will be presented as part of View Festival 2025- a two-week programme of theatre shows, events, and opportunities to discover each other’s worlds through the lens of theatre, in the heart of Peckham. 

From Wednesday 18th June 2025 to Saturday 28th June 2025, View Festival presents two shows a day over the run of two weeks, and on the Super Saturdays you can attend all the performances of the week, with additional community-oriented opportunities, special events, and a space where to have a picnic, listen to music and be together.
