Details

An autobiographical one-woman show exploring what it takes to evolve past the veil. The glowing promise of modern London versus the glum realities of a conservative Pakistani Muslim home are punctuated by Bollywood dance moves and at least one blackout drinking incident. Embodying 21 different characters - a domineering father, soulful mum, saucy English friend and Islamic studies teachers whose interests range from slapping to pornography - Nadia illuminates her conflicted sense of identity while questioning repressive cultural norms.
