Liberation Squares Playtext
by Sonali Bhattacharyya
āYouāve all heard a hundred different versions of what happened. Weāre here to tell you how it really went down.ā
Teenage best friends Sabi and Ruqaya spend their time choreographing dance routines, beat-boxing and hiding from bullies.
But when charismatic social media activist Xara challenges them to speak up about injustice, they find themselves under state surveillance, targeted by the anti-terrorist āPreventā programme. What you say, and even what you think, can be viewed very differently, depending on who you are...
Liberation SquaresĀ is a riotous comedy about sisterhood, freedom of speech, and dissent in the face of institutionalised Islamophobia. It was commissioned and developed by Fifth Word, and first produced in 2024 by Fifth Word and Nottingham Playhouse in association with Brixton House, and directed by Milli Bhatia.
