The Bill Murray, London

Based on the true story of Samia's kidnap to Saudi as child by her father. Naturally it's a comedy. In this extraordinary story, half-Saudi, half-Welsh, entirely unhinged, Samia Rida finds herself navigating a childhood of arranged marriages, temperatures hotter than the centre of a McDonald's apple pie, watching Grease on repeat, and caring for her disabled brother. On the plus side, she's finally found a solution to her unruly, frizzy hair: a veil. Moving behind two wildly different cultures, Samia discovers that escaping Saudi Arabia is only the beginning. Directed by Gareth Edwards (That Mitchell & Webb Look, Upstart Crow) KIDNAP isa darkly funny, fiercely honest one-woman show about family, identity, survival and the defiant act of laughing in the face of the unthinkable. \* \* \* \* \* Outstanding Edinburgh Fringe - Gilded Balloon \* \* \* \* UK Theatre Review No Fourth Wall. No Wall at all. Sorry, Trump.
