When put to the test, the human will to survive reveals its strength., is a timely and engaging love story which explores the rights of women, democracy and the power of love. Written and produced by aspiring Sydney playwright Sage Godrei, is part of this year's Sydney Fringe Festival for a strictly limited season - 5 performances only! is a fictional story set in Armenia 1919, at the end of the first World War. Against this tumultuous backdrop, Isleen, a Muslim woman, betrays her father in order to love Asad, a Christian Armenian. The play explores psychology, the imitation of behaviour through its depiction of the fight for human rights and details some of the similarities between Christianity and Islam. However, despite its historical, social and policial references, does not intend to be didactic.Rather this rebellious form of theatre aims to invoke a sense of 20th-century realism and 21st-century altruism as the spectator becomes the observer and the human being the subject of inquiry. Sage Godrei says "I believe that love will always find a way and am really thrilled to be producing a human rights play in the strain of the Epic Theatre method realised by the great Bertolt Brecht. I want the audience to see the possibilities of the world on the faces of the characters."
