About the show

Majenin means 'crazy people' in Arabic. The Palestinian rom-com you've been waiting for: a tale of two fools who dare to love in a world obsessed with their sadness. Torn between New York, London and Palestine, the only place they truly feel at home is inside of their shared madness. Writer/performer Marena Riyad joins award-winning director Justin Butcher (Scaramouche Jones) and producer Aisha Josiah (Dickless). Blending theatre and stand-up, it's an intimate, satirical, poetic occupation of the heart. 'Pure comedy gold... that rare combination of vulnerability and bite' **** (One4Review.co.uk).
