Overview
Cairo, 1942. As war rages in the desert, cultures collide in the city
and six individuals struggle to come to terms with love, lust and fate
in an alien country. In a melange of Mozart, Carmen Miranda, Vera Lynn,
Dixieland and cries from the minarets as the muezzins call the men to
prayer, this witty and audacious play inhabits a world where everyone
has something to hide and anyone may be a spy. Some Sunny Day was first presented at the Hampstead Theatre, London, in 1996, with Rupert Everett and Corin Redgrave.
