Description
Fatima Merchant is a force to be reckoned with. At 17, she's living life on her own terms - drinking, smoking, and partying with her friends. But on the eve of her 18th birthday, without warning or explanation, she adopts the hijab. Overnight, she becomes someone else entirely. This provocative play explores the complexities of identity, freedom, and multiculturalism in contemporary London. With its witty dialogue and sharp observations, What Fatima Did is a humorous and thought-provoking exploration of what it means to be seen and understood. Atiha Sen's debut play is a funny and incisive commentary on the challenges of navigating multiple identities in modern life.
