What would you take if you had to leave home with no hope of returning?
What would you take if you were forced to leave home with no hope of returning? How would you make a fresh start somewhere completely new? This is the true story about one woman who loses everything.
Remembering the tastes and aromas of her mother’s kitchen with live cooking on stage, she recreates the dishes of her childhood and homeland, building a new life and community around food.
Written by award-winning Hannah Khalil from the story by Atoosa Sepehr, this life-affirming play chronicles one woman’s quest to start again.
‘Utterly sensational’ ★★★★★ Quintessential Review
‘A thoroughly flavourful feast of a play that transports its audiences, through its aromatic delights, into an Iranian kitchen’ ★★★★ Guardian
