MOONSET

Tron Theatre, Glasgow, 3rd till 11th February

Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, 16th till 18th February

This is the Citizens Theatre’s first production of 2023 and chronicles four teenagers – Roxy, Gina, Bushra, and Joanne – who start delving into witchcraft to make sense of their transitions from girls to women. With a backdrop of a housing estate on the outskirts of Paisley, this fierce show follows them on their journey to ‘search for the power they were promised’. Writer Maryam Hamidi said of her new writing that she is exploring ‘that bone-cracking transition… To capture the messiness, rage, hope and hunger we feel at that age as well as the ache we have as older women looking back.’ citz.co.uk/whatson/info/moonset
