Image of An Unknown Young Woman

Resumen del libro

She is a young woman in a yellow dress. She has been shot by the police. As a video goes
viral, she quickly becomes an icon of resistance and a revolution begins to stir. Ali and Leyla
are panicking - they uploaded the footage and now the authorities are after them. Across town,
Yasmin is desperate to know if her missing mother is still alive. Halfway around the world, a
woman in London wants to help. As a tornado of dissent and violence spreads, everyone's life
is going to change.
Image of an Unknown Young Woman is a startling theatrical response to the representation of
women, the role of social media and the violent undercurrents that drive any revolutionary
movement. It opens the Gate Theatres ambitious Icons and Idols season in the summer of
2015.
