Waiting Room
By Isabel Wright
Five star Edinburgh Fringe 2005 show with Amnesty International Commendation.
ZENDEH presented Waiting Room at the Gateway Theatre for three weeks and was then ivited to an interatnional showcase at the Citizens Theatre as part of Scotland Live.
Two women from contrasting beliefs are bound together by a dark family secret, hide in an abandoned school room to survive an unnamed faith-civil war.
Marah is driven by the injustices she has witnessed and searches for facts to make sense of her world. Her daughter-in-law Naomi is haunted by nightmares but dreams of a brighter future. The relationship between the two women is riddled with love and hate.
Marah mourns for her gentle husband Abraham and unravels the tragedy her of son David. Naomi absorbs each word and begins to transform herself from an abandoned bride into a symbol of courage.
Through intense imagination and playful humour the women are drawn together towards the hope of a new world.
