The Bread & Roses Theatre presents
Little Did I Know
by Doc Andersen-Bloomfield - directed by Roman Berry
Top 3 of Bread & Roses Playwriting Award 2016/2017
Top Pick at London Pub Theatres Magazine
One woman show ‘Little Did I Know’ is told from Yarl’s Wood Detention and Removal Centre (for Women Asylum Seekers) in England. Aaneseh recounts her horrendous and sometimes amusing journey as a teen refugee, pretending to be a boy, and all those she meets along her journey from Syria to England. Her wise old grandmother’s Syrian folktales and insights have set Aaneseh on this challenging road to possible freedom, independence from male ownership, eventual safety - although the road she travels is anything but safe - and, ultimately, to a proud womanhood.
