Greener Pastures – A Play on Poverty and Gender Inequality

Greener Pastures is a powerful and emotionally charged play that explores the devastating consequences of poverty and gender inequality in African societies.

Driven by hardship, young women fall prey to the illusion of better opportunities abroad. Lured by the promises of shady agents, they leave their homeland in pursuit of a better future—only to face unimaginable abuse, exploitation, and psychological trauma in foreign lands.

Key themes explored:

• Poverty and its grip on African youth
• Gender-based vulnerability and societal neglect
• The dark side of economic migration
• The psychological toll of exploitation

This play is a must-read for anyone interested in contemporary African literature, women’s struggles, and the harsh realities behind the dream of "greener pastures."

Ideal for schools, literature enthusiasts, gender studies scholars, and readers seeking powerful, socially engaged fiction.
