Description

Emily loves books, Elena loves trees. As these two women forge friendships and face the trials of living in a bustling metropolis, they must confront issues of identity, belonging, and culture clash. From navigating the complexities of dating to overcoming language barriers, Sardark offers a poignant and humorous glimpse into the lives of these resilient young women as they strive to find their place in the world while staying true to themselves. With its compelling characters and rich cultural tapestry, Sardark is a captivating exploration of the immigrant experience and the universal quest for belonging and acceptance.

Wow! The writing was fantastic and so well acted! It moved quickly and continued to draw me in with funny, surprising and sometimes shocking turns. I want to see the next episode of how Emily and Elena’s relationship develops!

Hilarious and perfectly encapsulates the anxiety, indecision, and self-doubt that comes from being both a twenty-something and a non-Brit living in the UK. Really appreciate the stabs at British naming conventions (why DO they put r’s in everything??) and the lampooning of UK culture in general. Both actresses absolutely knock it out of the park and their chemistry is such a delight to see develop onstage. Really excited to see what else Bold Jingles does!!

This show is so touching! Simultaneously intimate and universal, asking what it really means to be English. The performances are effortless, the writing incredibly naturalistic. Don’t miss it!!

I really enjoyed this show. Great concept and well acted. Plenty to make me laugh and also to make me think a bit.

An entertaining and thought-provoking show about national identities, cultural barriers and belonging, with excellent performances from two young actors. A fun and interesting show to start your day with.

James 26 days ago

A sharp, funny, fast-paced, irreverent show poking fun at the UK, the US and Italy while exploring national identity and what it means to belong. The actors are excellent and really carry the show, would highly recommend for a fun start to the day!
