”Bridget Jones goes Jihad” was Mark Ravenhill’s description of his satirical play about art, business acumen and terrorism. Amy is a young Hollywood Starlet. All she needs is a manuscript capable of saving her from hell of B-film and making her a star; a text with artistic integrity and secure, commercial qualities. Mark, the film producer, believes that he has the perfect product for her – a manuscript that combines a fiery, hot love story between the dark spectrum and vast explosions of terrorism: ”Mohammed and Me” – a film about an innocent woman who falls in love with a suicide bomber. Assertively, Ravenhill deals with fantasy, sex and terrorism and conveys a strong remark about a worldwide situation going wrong. ”Ravenhill has more to say, and says it more refreshingly and wittily, than any other playwright of his generation” - Time Out / ”There are few stage authors writing more interestingly than Mark Ravenhill [...] He is – it is now yet more evident – a searing, intelligent, disturbing sociologist with a talent for satirical dialogue and a flair for sexual sensationalism.” - Financial Times
