AL'USRA is an in-depth look at family through the eyes of Islamic high school students using verbatim theatre.

AL'USRA was commissioned by a Melbourne Islamic school to enable students to witness live theatre for the first time, and is formed from interviews with these students.

This show covers favourite family members, annoying habits, moments when students were inspired by their family and moments when their family made them sad.
