Baghdaddy - Modern Plays
Jasmine Naziha Jones
Congratulations! Your pain is commercially viable. It s 1991 and the Gulf War rages three thousand, three hundred and twenty miles away. Darlee is 8 years old, crying behind the wheelie bookcase in Miss Stratford s classroom. She s just realised she s Iraqi.
Or half. Maybe both. She saw it on the news last night after Neighbours and fish fingers.
Heard the fear slipping through the receiver, saw it oozing from Dad s eyeballs and into the living room as he tried to phone home. What she can t process now, she ll be haunted by later; the spirits hounding her will make sure of that Baghdaddy is a playfully devastating coming-of-age story, told through clowning and memory to explore the complexities of cultural identity, generational trauma and a father-daughter relationship amidst global conflict. This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at London s Royal Court Theatre in November 2022.
