Reservoir refugee and actor Majid Shoukor is telling the stories of refugees and asylum seekers.
Shoukor has helped put together a new play called Something to Declare that has just been performed for the first time at the CUB Malthouse Theatre at Southbank.
Actors for Refugees spokeswoman Emma Beech said the play was about the experiences of a woman named Amal who survived the sinking of the boat dubbed the Siev-X.
An overloaded boat sank off Indonesia 20 months ago, killing 353 Afghanis and Iraqis.
Ms Beech said the play was now at a point where it could be picked up by mainstream producers.
