“What do you wanna be remembered for when your children
say your name?”
And we are live! We are so thrilled to be bringing this
contemporary adaptation of Sophocles’ Greek tale, Antigone, written
by Bradford's own Kamal Kaan, to you this week.
Each performance of Aalliyah (After Antigone)
will be both digital and live, so if you can’t be here in person you
won’t miss out!
In an office somewhere in Bradford, Aaliyah and Imani
are trying to get on with their cleaning job while anxiously waiting
for news of their brother, Syeed, threatened with deportation to
Bangladesh. When Home Secretary, Parveen Parvaiz, announces the news
they dread, Aaliyah must rise up and face the might of the State but
her political activism puts her own life in danger.
Putting the spotlight on the fragile nature of
citizenship in the UK and making us question our own relationship to
ourselves and our country, we hope you can join us for this powerful
new play, either in Bradford or online!
Performances take place in real life at Impact Hub
Bradford, Digital Exchange, 34 Peckover Street, Bradford BD1 5BD or
watch digitally on your mobile device via app or stream on your
PC/laptop. Booking is required in advance for both the live in person
show and to receive the links to watch online, for booking links and
