When Farah cries

Mudar al Haggi / Theater Arbeit Duisburg

Performance / Theater / Tanz
Tuesday 04. October 2016, 19.00 Uhr + Informelle Zusammenkunft im Anschluss

Debut performance of a Drama of Mudar Al Hague

When Farah cries tells a story of emancipation: of Farah, a young woman in Syria. During the Syrian revolution, a social attempt of liberation, she tries to liberate herself individually from family-, social and patriarchal constraints. The story takes place around one year after the beginning of the revolution, there is still hope. The drama (written in 2014) implies forebodings of the subsequent events which turned the revolution into a story of extensive war, flight and exile. It reminds us of its origin and the hopes that were invested into the uprising.

When Farah cries will be performed in three languages (Arabic, English and German) by performers from Syria, Iraq and Germany.
