In An Injury, Morvern wants to get up and walk away from this desk. Danny wants to write something revolutionary. Joe wants to protect what good we still have left. And then there’s Isma. We don’t know much about Isma. We know she’s twelve. We know she speaks only Arabic. We know she’s here. And we know she’s watching. Here, in this room, four speakers pick through the fragments of four shattered lives.
After their award-winning collaboration on Heads Up, writer Kieran Hurley (Beats, Hitch) and director Alex Swift (How to Win Against History, Mess) team up once again, to create a thrilling new play about violence, love, the distance between us, and the harm we do to each other.
The cast includes Khalid Abdalla, British Egyptian actor and activist best known for starring in the award winning film, United 93. He also starred in The Kite Runner and acted with Matt Damon in Green Zone.
An Injury is at Ovalhouse 18th – 22nd July 2017.
