YOU BURY ME – AHLAM – DIRECTED by KATIE POSNER

ROYAL LYCEUM THEATRE – EDINBURGH

Such an enjoyable dramatic experience. Loved the clever way the writer explored the gradual diminution of dreams as reality sets in after the revolution in Egypt (2011). Set in 2015 some wonderfully life-affirming characters are played by talented and engaging actors.

I recommend the short videos by the writer, cast and director which you will find by clicking through on Royal Lyceum Theatre, above. They go some way to explaining why the writer remains anonymous. They also explain the play’s gestation since she began work on it in 2015.
