‘ADEY ኣደይ’ is a one-woman play that takes its audience through themes of womanhood, culture, self-expression and Eritrean identity. It uses a combination of poetry, movement and dance to elevate these themes and asks members of the Eritrean and Ethiopian diaspora to celebrate and cherish their roots.’
Bethlehem Wolday-Myers (She/They) is a queer poet, actress and writer of mixed Eritrean and English descent – hailing from north London. Bethlehem is deeply passionate about her Black and queer identity, and how these two intersect. Creative writing has always been her forte, and Bethlehem now is looking to branch out into playwriting.
