Play Read: Territori by Nabilah Said

Territori plays out against the backdrop of the lush and remote Christmas Island, which shared close historical links to Singapore before being transferred to Australia on 1 October 1958, better known to islanders as Territory Day.

The play follows Layla, a Singaporean struggling to navigate a complex terrain of loss, opportunity, and exploitation. Amidst a controversial UNESCO application, islanders Zul and Aliyah confront questions about their future, while the community plans for the Territory Week celebrations. At its heart, this is a play about grief, resilience, and survival.
