FOLLOW ME HOME
“I’ve never told my friends about my story.”
Follow Me Home is a series of humorous, harrowing, and deeply human vignettes inspired by real experiences of young people who have faced homelessness. Told with heart, humour, and raw honesty, the play reveals the people behind the statistics—stories of resilience, survival, and the courage it takes to tell your truth.
Commissioned by the Advocate for Children and Young People (ACYP) and produced by ATYP, the work amplifies voices too often unheard and invites audiences into moments that are messy, vulnerable, and unmistakably real.

Praise for Follow Me Home
“Treston’s writing is incisive, and wonderfully dynamic. His dialogue sparkles and pops, to draw us in, and to keep our emotions invested.” – Suzy Goes See
“The script is excellent, the youth performers are agile and expert, and the reach is intergenerational and much more than just education and acknowledgement.” – Reviews by Judith
