Aditi Sharma, a young prodigy from Delhi, lives a life defined by her brilliance and passion for innovation. Known for her groundbreaking projects in artificial intelligence and low-cost technology, she dreams of creating tools to better humanity. But her extraordinary talents have made her a target for dangerous forces. Aditi's innovations attract shadowy figures from both India and abroad, including a ruthless cartel.

As shadowy figures close in and her family’s safety hangs in the balance, Aditi must navigate a treacherous web of deceit, greed, and power. Her brilliance, once a beacon of hope, has become a dangerous liability. But amidst the threats and betrayals, Aditi clings to the possibility of escape and the hope that her genius might one day free her from her captors—and change the world on her own terms.

Llanrumney plantation. Saint Mary Parish, Jamaica. 1765.
Annie and Cerys are enslaved by the Morgan family from Wales. When Elizabeth Morgan is faced with the loss of her plantation, the slaves' future hangs in the balance.
With a storm of rebellion brewing, Annie does everything she can to secure her future. But sooner or later she will have to face up to the horror and trauma all around her, including her own.
Azuka Oforka's play The Women of Llanrumney is a powerful, searing drama that explores the impact of slavery and the lives of women who experienced it – those who benefitted from it, those who were brutalised by it and those who fought to destroy it. It premiered at Sherman Theatre, Cardiff, in 2024, directed by Patricia Logue.
Azuka Oforka was the joint winner of the Best Writer award at The Stage Debut Awards 2024.
