From Khartoum to Kampala, Walid Al-Alfi’s Girls’ Theatre project helps Sudanese women turn personal memories of war and Kampala into performances shaped in their own voices onstage today.
For more than two decades, Sudanese theatre-maker Walid Al-Alfi has worked with women to turn their own experiences into performances. War and displacement have given that work a new urgency.
“What do you miss?”
It was a simple question, but for a group of Sudanese women displaced by war, the answers carried the weight of homes, families and lives left behind.
