“Lordless Ladies” talks about how people become when they no longer have a God, when they are unseen or uncared for, when they have lost everything and are just trying to survive.
It talks about three Syrian refugees seeking asylum in Germany, with each one coming from a completely different background from the other. It takes us deep into their struggles, back to their past, and shows expectations of their future.
The play switches between the life in the refugee shelter, and the direct conversation of each refugee with the “detective” (the German interviewer who is trying to see whether to accept them into the country).
The audience will get to experience a hint of how it is to live in this shelter, and will get to know why it has become the way it is. This is a dramatic, funny, and emotional play that tackles a multitude of social issues and talks about the real-life experiences of millions of people, in hopes of being a small step towards a world where people feel with eachother more.
