Laila Soliman

Egyptian Products (NHB Modern Plays)

Hadia is an independent woman in Cairo. Gasir is a painfully awkward lab assistant with attachment issues over his dead mother. Is he really her knight in shining armour?
Egyptian Products by Egyptian writer Laila Soliman, is taken from Plays from the Arab World, a collection of five extraordinary plays exploring and reflecting contemporary life across the Near East and North Africa, now available as individual ebooks.
The full collection also includes:

— Withdrawal by Mohammad Al Attar (Syria)
— 603 by Imad Farajin (Palestine)
— The House by Arzé Khodr (Lebanon)
— Damage by Kamal Khalladi (Morocco)
In 2007 the Royal Court Theatre's International Department and the British Council embarked on an ambitious project working with twenty-one writers from across the Near East and North Africa. Seven of the resultant plays received rehearsed readings at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 2008. Plays from the Arab World, introduced by Laila Hourani of the British Council, collects five of these unique new voices, each posing different but equally urgent questions.
