Based on a series of interviews between playwright Dave Carey and former revolutionary Christopher Maphosa, The Rain
That Washes tells the true story behind the headlines of Robert Mugabe's oppressive regime in Zimbabwe. With subtle humour,
the one-man show portrays shocking events in the country's history, from the fall of white supremacist Ian Smith's Rhodeisa
to air strikes in Zambia.
Through the eyes of Maphosa, the audience is brought on a life-altering journey of one man's struggle. Buy your The

More About The Rain That Washes the Play - Off-West End Success
The Rain That Washes was first staged at alternative theatre Chickenshed, a North London venue known for their inclusive and open-minded approach to theatre. The play has since become a minor
success, transferring to the West End's Leicester
Square Theatre in the autumn of 2012 to bring the compelling story about the struggle for equality and justice to a wider
audience.
Tackling a challenging subject with grace and honesty, The Rain That Washes illustrates the interconnectedness of
eras, people and events and how history informs the future. A theatrical feat featuring amazing work by both actor and director,
The Rain that Washes the play proves eye-opening and moving for those that witness its dramatic prowess in person.
