A play by the well-known Cypriot playwright Despina Pirketti

Friday 15th and Saturday 16th June at 7.30pm
Dugdale Centre, 39 London Road, Enfield EN2 6DS

All female Cypriot & Greek cast…

Sommerfugl – Norwegian for Butterfly, is an all-female play which tells the story of two friends Hope and Florence, both in their early fifties – now both divorced with a daughter.

Hope has sacrificed her personal life to devote herself to raising the feisty Kiki, whereas Florence refashioned her life exactly as she wanted, even if that meant becoming alienated from her teenage daughter, the perfectionist Myrna. Today, a 28 year old Myrna returns after three years of medical residency in Oslo. Florence eagerly anticipates her daughter’s return, but in order to face her, she will need to go back not just three but fourteen years, to the day she abandoned her to follow her lover.

Sommerfugl is a play about the terms and boundaries of motherly love, a woman’s right to claim happiness and a young woman’s desperate effort to regain the privileges she was shorn of.

Starring Vasoula Christodoulou, Lee Michaels, Tina Euri, Oznur Cifci and Katerina Barotsaki.

Produced and directed by Vasilis Panayi; Stage Manager-Assistant Director Katerina Barotsaki; and Music by Stalo Georgiou.

Translated into English by the playwright; English text edited by Helen Stavrou.

Tickets: £14.50 | Concs £12.50

Box Office: 020 8807 6680
Tickets available: dugdale.co.uk
