NIGHT CITY

About the show

Meet Jack, Tamara and Riva. Three ordinary people. All undervalued, underpaid and overworked. Welcome to London. Spanning three intersecting stories, Night City is an epic modern drama with sharp, dark humour, incorporating movement and an electric soundtrack to explore the highs and lows of London’s under-recognised workers. Ride-share driver Jack Stielitz tears through the city each night, fuelled by anything that will keep him going as the ‘GoGo cars’ algorithm pumps him full of cash and customer ratings. That is, until he meets Riva and the app takes a sinister turn, leaving his body broken on Old Kent Road. On the brink of eviction, home care worker Tamara Bishop loves her many patients but struggles to juggle all their needs. When she is asked to care for elderly heiress Gigi Mitchum, an unlikely friendship forms, but Tamara’s morality is thrown into question. Just arrived in London, young and naive waitress Riva Singh finds the city of dreams isn’t all she had hoped for. Desperate to make it as a writer, now is her chance to tell us her story. The story of Night City.
