Monday (play)

Monday is a one-woman stage play written and performed by Actress and Playwright Gloria Idahota Williams and directed by Ellie Joseph.

The play depicts a disturbing series of events that harm and eventually destroy the world of what appears to everyone else to be a typical, church-going North London, Jamaican family.

It had its second New York showing at the Samuel French Off Broadway One Act Play Festival at the Peter Jay Sharp Theatre after being selected out of 800 submissions worldwide.

[citation needed] The British Theatre Guide who wrote, " Gloria Williams is a star in the making... Monday has all the power and intensity of the best drama, whilst using inventive and cleverly rhymed-language throughout.

"[1] The Scotsman wrote, " Williams performance is harrowing and mesmerising in equal measure and hits home the fear and powerlessness of an abused teenager trapped behind the facade of her apparently normal life".
