Everyone says Mick and Sylv's is dangerous. So why does Dummey think it feels so much like home? Alan Dummet or 'Dummey' is a young lad who doesn't fit in. To make matters worse he lives on the Fountain Park estate, Northumberland, voted the second worst estate to live in Britain 1992. It doesn't even have a fountain. Or a park. His school, the Police, even his parents don't want him. Nobody does. That is until he meets Mick and Sylv. This new home has a secret code, a left-wing dog and a 6ft python. Unbeknownst to Dummey, joining the apparently secretive gang at Mick and Sylv's has consequences he could never have imagined.
HYEM (yem, hjem, home) is a story about lost kids and coming of age in an uncertain world - one of post truth, ethical uncertainty, 'broken' families and impending war.
This electrifying play premieres at Theatre503 in London before transferring to Northern Stage in Newcastle in October. Producers NorthSEE Theatre create cutting edge productions which provide opportunities for the best in new and established regional talent.
