Produktbeschreibung

'How religious are you?
I never know how to answer that question. I mean how do you measure religiousness?'

>

London worships many gods, but it often seems that Cupid isn't one of them. Sabrina, a single girl-about-town, is seeking Mr Right in a world where traditional and liberal brothers sit side-by-side, but rarely see eye-to-eye.

Shades explores tolerance within and without the Muslim community.

A programme text edition published to coincide with the world premiere at the Royal Court Theatre, London, on 28 January 2009.
