Cast announced for world premiere of The Double Act at Arcola Theatre

Set in Berlin, Moormaid is a thrilling chamber-play about self-destruction and rebirth that attempts to understand the fear currently gripping the European psyche, and the threats that may be posed by our own alienated youth. Bott’s inspiration for Moormaid came in 2014, when she discovered that two of her old classmates had travelled to Syria to fight for IS and didn’t come back. She was shocked by the banality with which the news was discussed and how this absurdity has now become a normality.

Moormaid stars renowned German actress Sarah Alles, Moe Bar-El and Ali Azhar.  It is at The Arcola Theatre 18^th April – 19^th May 2018.
