About

Nottingham Playhouse
​Tickets from £14 (£2.50 booking fee per order)
 
 
A powerful new production of A Thousand Splendid Suns, Khaled Hosseini's spiritual sequel to The Kite Runner.
 
In 1992 in an Afghanistan ravaged by war, an orphaned Laila is left alone in an increasingly threatening world. Her older neighbour Rasheed is quick to open his home and takes Laila as his second wife. Rasheed's first wife Mariam has no choice but to accept her younger, and now pregnant, rival. As the Taliban take over, life for all of them becomes a desperate struggle against starvation, brutality and fear, and the two women find themselves unlikely allies.
 
Former Birmingham Rep Artistic Director, and Hampstead Theatre Artistic Director Roxana Silbert directs this unflinching, life affirming drama, in which love grows and sustains the human spirit even during the hardest of times.
