HURRIED STEPS
This powerful hour-long play is based on testimonies from real women. It recounts eight stories inspired by facts reported by Amnesty International and is written by renowned Italian playwright, poet, novelist and journalist Dacia Maraini, who has spent her career investigating women's issues and sparking global debate. She has written a UK story exclusively for this production.
The stark, no-frills performance is followed by an hour-long discussion between the audience and a panel of local fieldworkers and experts including Jennifer Holly coordinator of the Stella Project's Mental Health Initiative.

"powerful, moving, expressive makes it more real" Audience feedback, Amnesty International's Human Rights Action Centre March 2011
