A Caribbean sailor's search for a living.

It’s May Day 1958. A small group of Black sailors are stranded on the island of St. Kitts after a terrible storm. The sailors indulge in a responsibility-free night on the town, as the looming unknowns of imperialism threaten their dreams of a better future.

Dora Award-winning playwright Kanika Ambrose (our place, Truth) shares an evocative tale about the systemic and deliberate breaking of Black men by colonial forces during the Windrush Generation, and the casualties left behind.
