Such as being invited as a guest journalist for the Independent to write on the Arab Spring.'The other obvious highlight is Rebecca Banatvala, who has a piercing gaze that feels as if it could bore through steel plating, excelling both as a distracted and traumatised mother and the would-be teenage Jihadi wife.' - londoncitynights'It's hard to fault any of the cast in the show, but Rebecca Banatvala is particularly strong as the humiliated teenager looking for a way out. This is Khan's writing at its most poetic, and Banatvala is flawless in her acerbic recital.' - criticallyspeaking Show less «
