Overview
Iran. 1980s. When Shideh's husband is conscripted to serve on the frontline, she is left alone with her young daughter in Tehran as the city is bombed. The missile strikes bring terror and destruction, but there is also something ancient and malevolent, carried on the wind.
Adapted by Carmen Nasr from Babak Anvari's BAFTA Award-winning horror film, Under the Shadow explores the boundary between the rational and the irrational, and the question of whether to leave or stay. It was first performed at the Almeida Theatre, London, in 2026, directed by Nadia Latif.
