Play about Muslim Lesbian

Morning all :smile: I heard about a play showing in London. Written by a Muslim lesbian, it’s about a couple who run a Muslim funeral home, they refuse to do a gay Muslim’s burial and are being sued by his partner for discrimination. The wife is also facing her own issues on sexuality. https://southwarkplayhouse.co.uk/show/the-funeral-director/ the play’s writer did an interview on Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour yesterday. Might be worth going to see and supporting? On till 24th November. Anyone seen it? Any thoughts?

I’ve watched the play already, and it’s an incredibly powerful performance to watch. I highly recommend seeing it, though very difficult to watch at times as the story is so close to our own.
