Hoxton, England, became notable in the 1990s as a groovy district of loft apartments and the stomping ground for artists that came to be collectively known as the yba's – Young British Artists. The area also needed urban regeneration, and the government promised an influx of funding to improve housing and social amenities.
Artistic Director Lisa Goldman and her team spent periods between 2004 and 2005 interviewing residents of Hoxton housing estates to find out just what has changed for them. Their answers and perspectives form the basis of the production of Hoxton Story. Goldman also took inspiration from the relationship between William Shakespeare and the Hoxton area. Shakespeare was once a Hoxton resident and most of the houses in the surrounding estates are named after characters in his plays; the sub-plot of Hoxton Story is loosely based on Romeo and Juliet.
