Watch our archive recording of Memoirs of an Asian Football Casual

CAUSE WE’RE LEICESTER, WE’RE ALL LEICESTER!

We were thrilled to share our archive recording of our acclaimed 2018 Made at Curve production Memoirs of an Asian Football Casual online during lockdowns.

Archive recordings are made by theatres so we have a full record of the productions we work on. Although the show was never intended for public broadcast, we made this video available with captions for everyone to enjoy for a limited time. It’s a story which celebrates the unique spirit of Leicester and we felt it was an important to be reminded of this vibrancy during lockdowns.
