Between Love and Revolution

Between Love and Revolution is a razor-sharp satirical play that delves into the tangled web of love, loyalty, and the unyielding quest for freedom. Set against the backdrop of a tumultuous political landscape, the lives of Fatimah and Nkrumah are deeply intertwined with the fervour of a revolutionary movement that promises to reshape society. But as the fire of revolution burns brighter, the cracks in their personal lives begin to show, revealing the emotional and relational costs of striving for grand ideals.

As Nkrumah’s passion for change consumes him, Fatimah grapples with the quiet struggle of maintaining her own identity and happiness within the shadow of his towering ambitions. The play’s sharp wit and heart-breaking moments invite the audience to reflect on the toll that political fervour can take on those who stand behind the scenes, supporting the cause while yearning for personal contentment.

Provocative, riveting, and piercingly relevant, Between Love and Revolution challenges us to confront the true cost of change—and to question whether love can survive when the world is on fire.
