In a small town in Syria, soldiers are celebrated as heroes and grieving families are nourished on propaganda.
As coffins pile up, a local party leader decides on a radical compensation scheme: a goat for each son martyred.
Developed as part of the Royal Court International Department's long-term project with writers from Syria and Lebanon, the play premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London in 2017.
