In this new staging of her acclaimed debut work, award-winning performer and writer Anoushka Lucas returns to the stage with Elephant, a piece that blends elements of live music, storytelling, and theatrical performance. The show follows Lylah, a young woman navigating life between two worlds—fitting in at her elite school while feeling out of place at home. Raised in a council flat and pressured to excel, Lylah learns early on that asking too many questions could cost her everything. Then, one day, a piano seemingly falls from the sky, landing in her home and changing her life. Through its keys, she finds an outlet, a passion, and a way to make sense of her surroundings.

Now grown, Lylah is chasing a promising career in music and falling in love, yet something still feels unsettled. As her relationship with the piano deepens, she begins to ask the questions she was once afraid to voice. Through a blend of memory, music, and historical reflection, she confronts the legacy of Empire and the cultural threads woven into her own identity. Elephant is a vibrant, personal journey that examines belonging, creativity, and the stories we inherit, delivered with Lucas’s signature warmth and lyrical depth.
