The Convert

Ms Danai Gurira

It's 1896 in Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) and Jekesai, a young Shona girl, escapes a forced arranged marriage by converting to Christianity and becoming a protege to an African Evangelical. As anti-colonial sentiments spread throughout the native population, Jekesai is forced to choose between her family's traditions and her newfound faith.

This Student Edition of Danai Gurira's 2012 play The Convert includes a commentary by Aviva Neff.
