The play centers on Zara’s attempts to escape her past any way she can. She must battle her own demons, and the demand for her salvation from a former lover. Zara’s world brims with mystique and lyricism; charming a sold out RADA Festival audience.
a ‘vulnerable, truthful, naked [performance], with very good use of language - absolutely beautiful!’
