The poetry play takes place at The Source tonight

After its premier at Dublin Fringe Festival last year, The Perfect Immigrant is back, and it is coming to 7 locations around Ireland. 

The Perfect Immigrant tells the story of Levi, a Nigerian man who just moved to Dublin to start his Masters.

This story will resonate with anyone who’s had to move somewhere new but especially those that are new in Ireland, as it compassionately pokes fun at Ireland’s cultural quirks. 

The show is taking place tonight - October 27th - at Source Arts Centre in Thurles. It is worth getting along to what promises to be a great evening of entertainment that is full of depth.

Here are some of the reviews from the play's run at DFF 2022:

‘This witty and carefully crafted confessional show, sliced up via fervent spoken word poems, centres on family dynamics, the experience of emigrating to a foreign land, and the feeling of being an outsider for the first time.’

★★★★ Buzz.ie

‘Under Katie O’Halloran’s direction, everything is kept simple and easy, O’Halloran making sure to give Yakura plenty of room to breathe. The result is less a play or, thankfully, a lecture, so much as a one-to one encounter. Yakura’s greatest strengths being his honesty and presence, which makes the entire audience feel connected.’

★★★★ Arts Review
