Bad Roads
translated by Sasha Dugdale, Natal'ya Vorozhbit


In the darkest recesses of Ukraine, a war is raging. A journalist takes a research trip to the front line. Teenage girls wait for soldiers on benches. A medic mourns her lover killed in action.

Natal’ya Vorozhbit's play Bad Roads is a heartbreaking, powerful and bitterly comic account of what it is to be a woman in wartime. It premiered at The Royal Court Upstairs in November.
