This study analyzes Martyna Majok’s Sanctuary City (2022) with the aim of examining the social structures that constrain individual lives and the modes of immigrants’ lives shaped under such influences, drawing on both literary representation and philosophical reflection. Majok positions B and G, who represent Dreamers, as the protagonists. She foregrounds the active potential of individuals grounded in self-determination who reconfigure the conditions of life beyond identity categories such as class and race. The play argues that hope enables this transformation and should be understood not as an emotional choice but as a viable way of life in a world marked by constant despair. Drawing on Gilles Deleuze’s concepts of “ritournelle,” “simulacra,” and “desiring-production,” this paper analyzes the philosophical implications embedded in Majok’s staging. It integrates these concepts into a coherent framework and reads the characters’ experience of the ‘present’ as outsiders. It also considers Majok’s existential vision and the function of hope in the open ending. By portraying the protagonists as Dreamers oriented toward flight, Majok underscores that recognizing difference and enacting hope are essential to realizing a creative future.
