Just like Taliban soldiers, journalists feel it is their God-given duty to search out the “one truth.”
The Taliban Don't Like My Knickers is a stylized two-hander play about a journalist who is apprehend by the Taliban. While in captivity the relationship between the journalist and her personal guard develops against all odds.
The Taliban Don't Like My Knickers is set in Afghanistan and is loosely based on the remarkable accounts of Yvonne Ridley; a British journalist captured by the Taliban in 2001 who survived one of the most terrifying political regime in the world.
