'Private Gigi. One Direction awaits your commands.' A roadblock. Two young women armed with machine guns and Nutella. Days away from finishing the army. Gigi has a secret. Dar dreamt she'd be shot today. And there's a strange vehicle heading their way… Well, that's okay. Nothing ever happens here. Right? A comic tragedy about what we bury in order to survive, Josh Azouz's play Gigi & Dar was first performed at the Arcola Theatre, London, in 2024, directed by Kathryn Hunter. 'Surreal, very funny… an anti-war message through off-kilter comedy… It's a bit Becketty – two characters waiting around – and a bit Pintery in the humour it finds in a black situation. And it's pretty great' - Time Out 'Sharply relevant… a scalpel-sharp, tragi-comic delve into the dangerous mundanity of the theatre of war… devastatingly effective' - The Stage 'Brutal but balanced, with complexly drawn characters… invites us to consider what happens next after the suffering' - Broadway World
