The Mother of Kamal
Written by Dina Ibrahim
Directed by Stephen Freeman
It is 1948 in the slums of Baghdad. A working-class Jewish mother, Um-Kamal, finds her two sons arrested by the feared and loathed Secret Police. Inexplicably, the younger brother, Sasson, gets imprisoned, while Kamal, the older, is set free. Rumour and intrigue ensue, and Um-Kamal is reluctantly drawn into the orbit of the Communist Party, risking all to save her teenage sons and hold her rapidly fragmenting family together.
Decades later, conflicting family histories and narratives emerge, as the troubled Kamal finally faces a reckoning with the truth of what really happened following that night in the cells in Baghdad – and its impact on the family across time and space.
Following a sold-out run at the 2023 Camden Fringe, writer Dina Ibrahim brings a new, extended full-length telling of this powerful, poignant, warmly humorous, gently satirical, and intriguing piece of personal family history. Blending traditional narrative drama with elements drawn from classical, physical, epic and ensemble theatre, this is “theatre of the soul to sustain us… A symphony of survival” (International Times).
★★★★
“Surges with passion… intersperses beautifully judged comedy with the weightier elements of the piece.”
Morning Star
★★★★
“Crafts a Middle Eastern tale that unravels a web of secrecy [and] guilt.”
Fringe Biscuit
“Dina Ibrahim’s writing shines. This is a show deeply passionate about the story it is telling, ambitious in both scope and form.”
London Pub Theatres Magazine
Running Time: 2 hours (including interval)
Advisories: Play text includes language that some might find alarming. There is also mention of bereavement. Suitable for ages 12+

Come and join our Musical Theatre Choir! A fun, low pressured choir focusing on songs from musicals, and older pop songs. We rehearse on Thursday evenings, 8-9.30pm at Jackson’s Lane, opposite Highgate tube station.
Throughout the year, we will cover repertoire from Rodgers and Hammerstein musicals, to Les Mis, to Sondheim, to West Side Story, to Wicked, and everything in between. Older pop songs will include songs by the Carpenters, the Beatles, and many more.
Any standard welcome, and no need to read music as the songs will be taught line by line. The choir is run by Rachel Dussek, a singer, singing teacher, and choir leader who trained in classical singing and then in musical theatre at Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts. Please get in touch by email or phone to book a taster session.

SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD
Following a brief five-star run in Southend last year, cult musical SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD comes to Upstairs at the Gatehouse this February for a strictly limited run.
The debut song-cycle from Tony Award® winner Jason Robert Brown (The Last Five Years, Parade, Bridges of Madison County), SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD is an anthology of short stories told through song that takes audiences on a journey, teetering on the edge of one moment that can shape the rest of your life.
Featuring Musical Theatre fan favourites including ‘I’m Not Afraid of Anything’, ‘Stars and the Moon’ and ‘King of the World’, this production of SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD creatively explores the human condition from vastly different New World perspectives, from the deck of a 15th century ship to the window ledge of a modern day high-rise in Manhattan.

Deep in the forest live Mammy, Daddy and Baby Bear. Each day the three bears head into the woods to collect interesting things to re-use in their home. Soon their cosy house is turned upside down by a colourful whirlwind that threatens to sit in their chairs, eat their porridge and sleep in their beds. It’s Goldilocks!
Bring your bears for an adventure in the woods, with original music, puppets and a tale you thought you knew.
Suitable for ages 6 and under
