‘The readier you are, the better chance of survival you have’



Pack Bag. Set timer. Run. Repeat.



Mariam knows the army often drops small warning bombs – a knock on the roof – giving tenants in Gaza 5-15 minutes to evacuate before their home is destroyed.



With dry wit and determination, Mariam meticulously rehearses for the run of her life, deliberating what – and who- she can take with her.



Written by and starring Khawla Ibraheem, this unforgettable new play about obsession, survival and everyday life in Gaza is directed and developed by Obie Award winner Oliver Butler (What

the Constitution Means to Me) direct from an Off-Broadway run at New York Theatre Workshop.

Captioned performance: Friday 7th March 7:30pm (Familiarisation tour at 7pm)
