Before the Millennium

A snowwoman from Pakistan - full of songs, hopes, and dreams...

As the final days of 1999 draw near, Pakistani migrants, Zoya and Iqra, work side by side in Woolworth's Oxford Cowley branch - anxious and excited for what's to come in the new millennium. At their Christmas staff party, the pair encounter a mysterious new girl - Faiza - who threatens to alter everything they thought they knew about their friendship and their future.

Magical, tender and quietly radical, Before the Millennium is a lyrical new play from award-winning playwright,
Karim Khan - charting the joys of a lifechanging friendship, the icy bitterness of homesickness and the sacrifice of migration.

This edition was published to coincide with the production at Old Fire Station, Oxford, in December 2025.
