Sisters

Sisters

Listen.

This is what it’s like to be a Muslim woman in
Britain today.

Based on interviews with dozens of women from
across the country and around Sheffield, Stephanie
Street’s new play lifts the veil on a world of custom
and tradition. Sisters exposes the human stories at
the heart of the Muslim community, cutting through
the stereotypes and bringing a chorus of voices to
life on stage.

A poignant, surprising and insightful journey into the lives of Muslim women.

A World Premiere.
