Media release: Adam screening for BBC Scotland
A MULTI-award winning production by the National Theatre of Scotland has been adapted for a special screening on television.
A new and specially-crafted recording of Adam will be shown on the BBC Scotland channel in early March.
Inspired by the life of Adam Kashmiry, Adam tells his remarkable story. Born in Egypt, Adam was assigned female at birth but always knew he was a boy, then as he reached adulthood had to flee from his homeland, coming to Scotland hoping to transition.
Written by playwright and dramaturg, Frances Poet, and reworked for the screen, the hour-long drama focuses on Adam’s isolating experiences in a Glasgow flat while awaiting a decision on his asylum claim.
