Tomorrow night, a script enters the room for the first time.

Written by Diana Mawusi Quarshie, she is a writer, performer, and deviser of Ghanaian heritage, based in Naarm (Melbourne). Her work moves through identity, ancestry, and return, using performance as a way to honour lived experience and that invites collective reflection.

Director and dramaturg lead a table read and script discussion. Breaking down the text, questioning the structure, examining the cultural logic that holds the story together is named out loud.
