Her

A girl comes home to find her house has disappeared: the neighbours have fled and the streets are deserted: a compelling story of a fifteen year old London girl who inexplicably finds that conflict has made her an alien in her own country.

Drawing on the experiences of ordinary people confronted with displacement as a result of war, this at times shocking play features one actor playing different versions of the ‘girl’. She navigates the harsh realities faced by young women in conflict zones and the difficult choices they have to make to survive.

Using innovative green screen technology to integrate animation, film and live action, her combines the emotional depth of theatre with the visual intensity of the graphic novel to create a dark and twisted world of politics, war and survival.

Performances are followed by a Q and A giving audiences a chance to discuss the creative processes used to make the show and the issues raised by the production.

This production will also be supported by a dedicated open access microsite providing a platform for the creative voice of the audience to engage with the issues raised in the play.
