Written by Mahlon Prince
More reimagines Great Expectations in modern-day London, blending hip-hop, soul and R&B as a soundtrack to this classic coming-of-age story.
Pip is a young man of Caribbean descent, orphaned not by death, but by the bureaucratic nightmare of the Windrush Scandal trapping his parents in legal limbo. Raised by his sister and her partner, Pip dreams of a better life. When he encounters wealthy, eccentric Miss Havisham and her daughter Estella, he’s drawn into a world of privilege, love, and betrayal. Through his rise and fall, he pursues ambition, redemption and a place to belong.
