A Beautiful Stranger

EVENT DESCRIPTION

A single mother, Hafsa swims everyday for two hours to numb her breakup and feel alive again. One evening, at the pool, she meets Yaya, an undocumented teenager. In the midst of fantastic creatures, Hafsa and Yaya weave a relationship that has no name yet, a beautiful stranger who radically transforms Hafsa.

A fifty-minute monologue, A Beautiful Stranger is a modern fairy tale adapted from the journey of Jason and the Argonauts, where love, motherhood and family are larger than expected.

Inspired by twenty interviews conducted around the question of hospitality, A Beautiful Stranger is a play for one actress and five characters to play in and out of theatres.

Post-show Talk
