Laith is in serious trouble – but he can’t tell you why. He’s spent years keeping a secret, but it’s catching up with him.

As if that weren’t enough, Laith’s mum won’t stop throwing things at seagulls, and his dad keeps wandering off during life-threatening situations.

Laith’s parents escaped Iraq 30 years ago, which he reckons is the reason he’s in this whole mess to begin with.

Side-splittingly funny and deeply moving, Insane Asylum Seekers explores the complexities of the British-Iraqi refugee experience. Written by Laith Elzubaidi and directed by Olivier Award-nominee Emily Ling Williams (A Playlist For The Revolution).
