Synopsis:

After years of silence, Adeel attempts to reconnect with his mother for one last time in a bid to uncover the truth about something that has been weighing heavily on their hearts. As they embark on an emotional journey together, they revisit old memories, confront buried emotions, and finally open up to each other.

Through their conversations and interactions, Adeel and his mother rediscover the bond they once shared and gain a newfound appreciation for the complexities of their relationship. Along the way, they also learn valuable lessons about forgiveness, acceptance, and the power of familial love.

Featuring powerful performances and a touching storyline, this play is a must-see for anyone who has ever struggled to fill the gap between past and present. Join us as we explore the timeless themes of family, identity, and self-discovery in this poignant and thought-provoking production.
