A girl. Train station. Night. She is running away. She has been running her whole life. Until tonight. 

"20 years old, holding a suitcase in one hand and plenty of issues in the other, I convinced myself a change of scenery, people, job, house, friends, lifestyle, currency, time zone and a language will solve all of them at once."

​

Beyond Borders presents their debut play Runaway, a semi-biographical story wrapped in a generous coat of unapologetic humour, exploring themes of home, belonging and finding your identity as a foreigner in a big city. About running towards the future and running away from the past, until you cannot run anymore and all you are left with is the present.
