Where words fail, the stage speaks 🎭
We are SO proud of our wonderful community cast who brought this play to life with incredible, moving performances. We're also hugely grateful to our invaluable crew and volunteers who kept everything running behind the scenes, and to all who came and warmly supported The Gazan Women over its (sold-out!!) run. Until the next act! ✨

The Co**se Road follows the rise and fall, the twists and turns of these paths to tell the tale of characters that were carried to their final resting place. 🪾
