More Info
When Clement Achebe, a successful insurance manager from Lagos, leaves behind a comfortable life in search of greener pastures in England, he soon discovers that dreams abroad aren’t always as golden as they seem. Through laughter, regret, and raw honesty, Clement shares his journey from boardroom to broomstick, exploring migration, ambition, and the fragile balance between pride and survival.
This powerful one-man play blends humour and heartbreak in equal measure, bringing to life the universal struggle of finding meaning far from home. Second Thoughts is a touching exploration of identity, belonging, and the choices that define us, a story for anyone who’s ever wondered if the grass is truly greener on the other side.
