Euphrate at Theatre Raymond Kabbaz

Euphrate is a young French woman born to a French mother and a Turkish father. She fumbles through school, trying figure out out what to do with her life. Euphrate explores; she confronts life and breaks rules, she finds anchors and support, and she visits her father's native Anatolia in Turkey where she meets a kindred spirit in Afife Jale (1902-1941), Turkey's first Muslim actress. Euphrate becomes Nil Bosca’s theatrical double, recounting the long journey of a young woman towards autonomy. Between returning to her roots and tearing away from her origins, Euphrate invents herself.
