An estimated 320,000 people are homeless in the UK. With anything between 4,000 and 5,000 people sleeping rough on any given night, the figure has nearly doubled that of 2010.

This new performance by Make, DO Theatre attempts to give a voice to people affected by homelessness in West Yorkshire. Using a mixture of poetry, verbatim, storytelling, and physical choreography, Little Change presents a collage of real-life experiences taken from interviews with the homeless community and the people who support them.
