With an influx of Cinderellas running around Hollywood lately, the British School of Colombo couldn’t have timed their production of Timberlake Wertenbaker’s ‘The Ash Girl’ more perfectly. Directed by Angelo Pereira and Tracy Holsinger, the play promises to be one of intrigue and mystery, with its title character facing problems all too familiar to modern-day teenagers.
At the end of the day Ash Girl must battle the Seven (or in this case Six) deadly sins, manifestations of her own doubts which take bodily forms as Angerbird, Slothworm, Pridefly, Envysnake, Greedmonkey and Gluttontoad. Swathik Ponnusamy (Greedmonkey), Azquiya Ususph (Envysnake) and Josh Cockeram (Pridefly) say that their characters are catalysts for Ash Girl’s process of self-discovery.
Will Ash Girl overcome her doubts and insecurities? What of the mysterious Prince (who we’re told has an equally interesting backstory) Watch the play from 26-28 March at the British School Auditorium to find out more. Tickets available at the school office.
