Three strangers. One billboard. Last one standing wins a home.
Inspired by a real 1980s endurance contest in which competitors lived on a billboard for months, We Have Been Here For… explores what happens when the search for a home becomes a public spectacle.
Set in the American rust belt, but resonating strongly with today’s housing crisis, the show asks how long people will hold on for the promise of securing a future.
This is a chance to see a new work-in-progress show from one of the most exciting writers from across the UK and Ireland, as part of our Shed Originals script development programme in partnership with The Lowry.
