Strangers and Revelations at Drayton Arms Theatre

PART OF DRAYTON ARMS THEATRE EDINBURGH PREVIEWS

'People can be strange and scary and complicated, up and down like the tides…'

Zodwa and Malcolm, two Zimbabweans in London who meet for their first date in unusual circumstances: at Malcolm’s house. They size each other up, connecting and debating over shared cultural understandings and experiences, ultimately revealing more about themselves than they bargained for once they start to uncover deep, staggering truths about the other. The debut play by Zimbabwean playwright Chiedza Rwodzi, Strangers and Revelations is a striking and provocative exploration of relationships (between men and women), mythology and trauma through an African lens.
