'See that's the problem with this family innit, we never wanna talk
real about Ife.' In the wake of the sudden death of their eldest
son, Ife, one family is forced to confront the traumas they've long
tried to bury. As the sun beats down on their cramped North London
flat, and the head of the family arrives from Ethiopia for the
funeral, tensions rise, cultures clash and past betrayals are
unearthed. A tense, funny and explosive drama exploring what it
means to belong, and what happens when a family's secrets shake its
foundations. House of Ife premiered at the Bush Theatre, London, in
April 2022, directed by Artistic Director Lynette Linton. Beru
Tessema is an Ethiopian-British writer based in London. His stage
play, Exile in North Weezy, was shortlisted for the prestigious
Papatango Playwriting Prize 2020. He began his relationship with
the Bush on their Emerging Writers' Group, and House of Ife was
written on commission.
