Gecko Ķīn in London

Gecko Ķīn is story of families fleeing, arriving and beginning again, and shares the experiences of those navigating migration, displacement and the search for home, as well as the cost of becoming someone new and the weight of holding onto who we were.  

The show has been created by Gecko’s BAFTA-nominated Artistic Director, Amit Lahav, alongside an international ensemble.

What to expect

Gecko Ķīn asks profound questions about identity and survival. It also captures the extraordinary resilience of those rebuilding their lives through Gecko’s signature physical theatre style, combined with a global soundtrack.

The play is not told through words, but through the language of movement, and aims to showcase the lived experiences of migration, including the loss, the hope, the resilience and the profound human desire to belong.

Gecko Ķīn is a story of families fleeing, arriving and beginning again, and is told through Gecko’s trademark style of hypnotising movement with a global soundtrack.
