RELEVANCE
Why this story? Why today?
Why does a story set in 1850s Sicily still matter today? Because The Sparrow isn't just about a girl in a convent - it's about anyone who has ever been told who they should be.
​
The show explores how women's voices are shaped - and often silenced - by societal expectation, turning Maria's story into a universal struggle for self-determination.
