In the organizer's words:
The play was created in KULA's transcontinental Writers' Room with the artists of the Simorgh Theater, Herat, Afghanistan.
The play begins in England in 1517: it is Evil May Day, an uprising against the refugees from the continent. Thomas More speaks to the enraged citizens of London, moving their compassion; a fragment of a play attributed to Shakespeare depicts the scene in a very contemporary way. The dramatic journey continues through times and countries, from the London of the author of Utopia to present-day Herat - and, beyond the play, from the underground back to life for the actresses of the Afghan Simorgh Theater: One by one, they, who could only appear on video at the premiere in 2022, regain the stage in exile that was denied them at home when their lives were in danger.
