Tales from the Garden

Assembly Rooms, Edinburgh

About the Show

Tales from the Garden is a play about being a young woman, not knowing your place, being broken, trying to fix yourself, being haunted, being stolen, being free, asking God to help you, trying to help yourself, hiding, running, sewing, screaming, hoping. In her first one-woman show, Ameera Conrad explores the joys and traumas of being a young woman raised in a world that makes women targets for aggression and violence. This play explores the tension of consent, guilt, fear, and love, and questions what the repercussions are of having to deal with trauma alone.
