The Presumption of Being a Good Woman

Reaching from The Ponds in the north to Dawson Mall in the west, Magnify activated sites across Blacktown with music, dance, film and installations. Local artists and communities shared stories of our region through these 8 new creative experiences.

The Good Woman is a play produced by Maryam Zahid, a Blacktown-based social worker and founder of the online movement Afghan Women on the Move. Based on her own stories and experiences, The Good Woman was written with the mentorship of Robert Colman and performed by Maryam Zahid and Odile Le Clezio in August 2019 at The Leo Kelly Blacktown Arts Centre as part of Magnify.
