Gigi & Dar

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.

'Private Gigi. One Direction awaits your commands.'

Press Quotes

'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

'Absurdist tragedy mixed with gleeful comedy, with a dash of lurking Pinteresque menace'

Reviews Hub

'Fantastically engaging and funny with savage undertones'

London Pub Theatres Magazine

'Remarkable... resonates deeply... truly impactful'

Theatre & Tonic

'A stunning piece of theatre that manages to be confrontational and compassionate all at once'
