A community is in crisis. Two young Pakistani girls run from their families: one is hunted, the other forgotten. Their bid for freedom has led them to an Asian women's refuge in a nearby Northern town. But with dialogue across the generational divide impossible, the girls soon ask themselves how sweet freedom really is. A poignant story of fractured family ties, Sweet Cider is the debut play by performance poet, Emteaz Hussain. Running time 55 minutes with no interval.
