Details

When Nawal Marwan dies, she leaves letters for her twins, Janine and Simon; one to be delivered to their brother and one to their father... and the mystery begins. They both thought their father was dead and never knew of a brother. The letters plunge them into the maelstrom of their war ravaged family history. After the worldwide success of Scorched this is the British premiere of Wajdi Mouawad’s stunning, multi-generational, time twisting epic about the human fall-out from civil war and the power of forgiveness. Funny, heart-breaking and totally engaging, this is storytelling at its powerful best.
