Border Tales, Protein’s smash-hit commentary on multicultural Britain seen through the eyes of an international cast, is told through dance, live music and dialogue compiled from the performers’ personal experiences. With this broadcast we contribute to breaking down the walls of silence that uphold and sustain ‘borders’ around the world. “Funny, thought-provoking and consistently entertaining, Border Tales celebrates our differences, acknowledges our sameness and does more to repair the rifts than politics ever could.” - ★★★★★ The Scotsman

In a collective dance? In a sister's laughter? When does it finally happen? For the soul to let go.
