Phizzical Productions have announced a tour of Shahid Iqbal Khan's Olivier nominated play 10 Nights, which opens at London’s Omnibus Theatre on 7 February 2024, before visiting Bristol, Hayes, and Leicester.

Audiences from four cities get to experience one man's spiritual journey of self-discovery after he decides to participate in Iʿtikāf - the Islamic practice of a staying in a mosque and fasting for the last ten nights of Ramadan. This moving and funny production will tell Yasser’s story in English, with Urdu and Arabic references, as well as being creatively captioned.

10 Nights was developed through Graeae Theatre Company's Write To Play programme, and was originally co-produced by Graeae and Tamasha, in association with the Bush Theatre in 2021. Telling a warm story of forgiveness and acceptance, 10 Nights will have audiences embark on a spiritual sleepover, contemplating faith, friendships, and future.
