An Unexpected Guest is written by Lindy Wilson and directed by Kaulana Williams. Set in 1965 America, the play follows the arrival of a former anti-apartheid activist at the home of newlyweds Mark and Justine Rutherford, forcing long-buried truths to the surface. The drama explores loyalty, identity, and the lasting impact of political struggle on personal relationships.
