"Goats" is set in a small Syrian town brainwashed by ongoing propaganda to fight a civil war. Martyrs are considered heroes in the eyes of many, and grieving families are given goats as part of the local party leader, Abu Al Tayyib's compensation scheme.
Revisit "Goats" seven years after it premiered in London, but this time through a reimagining of the characters and the space.
Ram Noureddine's play adaptation tackles the absurdity of war and the hypocrisy that follows corruption. We will be introduced again to the original story through the martyr's father, Abu Firas, and his journey to seek the truth about his son. This production focuses on the idea that war is indistinctive for people's culture, ethnicity and race, portrayed by the diverse cast members.
"War can reach anyone and everyone." - Ram Noureddine, Adaptor and Director.
REGULAR EVENTS
A NEW SCRATCH NIGHT
Monday, 7 October 2024, 7.30 pm
Optimise The Interim is Moya Jane Productions' first scratch night and will showcase 8 incredible pieces of new writing, brought to the stage by a talented group of directors and actors.
The idea behind this event is
to make the most of the time in between paid jobs. As creatives, we spend so much time waiting for our next opportunity, craving a creative outlet and a chance to share our work. This event is the space to do just that, showcase the talent of everyone involved, and… optimise the interim!
Best friends Hamza and Jake discover characters, scenes and storylines on the spot, without the faintest idea what might happen next.
Every Thursday night watch as Avocado pull an ORIGINAL ONE-ACT PLAY out of thin air, turning truth into belly laughs; imagine Tarantino meets Spinal Tap.
Adding fuel to the fire, legendary music fills each show, from soulful grooves to rare classics, leaving you dancing in your seat and rolling in the aisles

Come along to the Sunday Fix and join our growing network of emerging artists getting creative together.
