Counter Offence at Segal Centre for Performing Arts - Event

Counter Offence is a collision of virtues. Shazia, an Indo-Québecoise woman with traditional Muslim parents, is in an abusive relationship with her husband Shapoor, an Iranian facing immigration issues. What happens when the fight against racism comes into conflict with the struggle to end violence against women? With physical theatricality, this creatively directed gripping murder-mystery explores the intersection of the two issues. Working backwards through flashbacks, both sides are investigated, examining the consequences of gender versus race and skin-colour. In this serious play with moments of real humour, audiences continue to question their own biases almost 30 years later.
