When Rosa, an impoverished Filipina domestic worker, finds herself enslaved in London, she is desperate to escape her servitude - her faith and love of Karaoke dancing can only sustain her so far. After two futile attempts, with the help of fellow Filipina Angel, she finds freedom at last, only to be trapped once more within the UK immigration system as an illegal immigrant. Written by Carolyn Lloyd Davies with Franchezka Cunanan, 'Can't See For Looking', opens on 18 October, Anti-Slavery Day, at the Cockpit Theatre and runs until 4 November. This fast-moving and shocking drama is based on extensive interviews with five Filipina domestic workers rescued in London from modern slavery. The play is inspired by these true stories and not only highlights the prevalence of hidden slavery in a village, town or city near you, but also how reluctant we are to report it, because of what it would cost us to confront our neighbours, employers or friends with such uncomfortable truths.
