Description

The Women of Llanrumney by Azuka Oforka is a powerful and searing drama that explores the impact of slavery on women's lives. Set in 1765, the play delves into the experiences of those who were enslaved, brutalised, and those who fought against it.

Against the backdrop of a plantation in Saint Mary Parish, Jamaica, Annie and Cerys navigate their enslavement by the Morgan family from Wales. As Elizabeth Morgan faces the loss of her plantation, the slaves' future hangs in the balance, leading to a storm of rebellion.

This thought-provoking play premiered at Sherman Theatre, Cardiff, in 2024, directed by Patricia Logue. It is a testament to Azuka Oforka's skill as a writer, who was joint winner of the Best Writer award at The Stage Debut Awards 2024.
