Lauren Booth: Accidentally Muslim

The daughter of a troubled TV star, Lauren Booth survives a house fire, embraces Soho hedonism and ends up being the skeleton in her family’s closet. Her biggest surprise comes when she wakes up in a mosque to a shocking revelation. Accidentally Muslim tracks Lauren Booth’s journey from hedonism to Hajj on a social and spiritual adventure. A nuanced one-woman show, performed with brisk honesty and sharp humour, sweeps from the suburbs of North London to the olive groves of Palestine, exploring a life of activism, the celebrity jungle and life’s big questions.
