Trouble in Butetown

First thing I'm a need you to do is keep my secret. Can't let nobody know I'm here and I mean nobody.

In her illegal boarding house in Butetown, Cardiff, Gwyneth Mbanefo toils tirelessly to keep afloat. It's a port town during the war; home to souls from every corner of the globe. When Nate, an African American GI, escapes his barracks and discovers this new world without segregation, can he find safe harbour? And with danger on every corner, who can he trust? A pressing new play from the award-winning playwright, Diana Nneka Atuona.
