About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

In collaboration with Oxford House , Maanta Theatre Production, Somali Sideways, and Kayd Somali Arts and Culture invites you to the premiere of the new play Between Two Worlds.

Set between Mogadishu and London, Between Two Worlds follows the emotional journey of Ali, a young Somali man who dreams of a better life in Europe. Torn between the love for his family and the lure of opportunity abroad, Ali makes a decision that reverberates through borders and generations. This powerful, humanising story explores themes of migration, identity, sacrifice, and the search for belonging—echoing the lived realities of many in the Somali diaspora.

The play is brought to life by a talented cast: Afnaan Osman, Ilham Yusuf, Salma Muse, Mohamed Ali, Isahaq Abdikarim, Muna Abdullahi, Ali Mohamoud, Ali Mohamed Abdalla, Hamza Ahmed, and Foozi Artan. The production team includes Ruweyda Sheik-Ali - Assistant Director, Salma Muse - Social Media Manager, and Abdibasid Hussein - Project Designer.

Playwright Mohamed Mohamud is the founder of Somali Sideways, a platform dedicated to uplifting Somali voices and sharing stories that celebrate Somali identity, achievements, and global contributions. His work centres on challenging stereotypes and promoting pride in Somali heritage.


The performance will be followed by a Q &A with writer Mohamed Mohamud & director Mukhtar Moalin
