Review: FOAL, Finborough Theatre
by Aliya Al-Hassan - May 9, 2026

Titas Halder's new play Foal is named after some of the night terrors that visit his protagonist as he sinks into a mental black hole. A study of personal relationships and a fight to find compassion in an often hostile world, we follow A.K., a man recalling and reliving sections of his life as his demons close in on him. He lives on an island with his family and is one of only two Asian children in his school. His childhood, teens and adulthood are punctuated by an undercurrent of racism which, along with a highly problematic relationship with his mother, combine to create a turmoil in his mind that has devastating consequences.

Guest Blog: 'I Don’t Think You Have Seen This Before': Writer Titas Halder On The World Premiere Of His New Play, FOAL
by Guest Author - May 1, 2026

I never thought once thought about what the songs were about when I was a kid, I was just trying to learn the basslines – but now, with a few brain cells more, listening to the lyrics, the thematics of these songs are revealed as lurid, dark, satirical, political. It’s just that the music rocks hard and is funky as hell. And I think it’s in this spirit that I wrote the heavy metal arthouse mayhem that is FOAL.
