Jenny Jules
Ruined
Role Mama Nadi
In April 2010 Jenny Jules opened in Lynn Nottage's play Ruined at the Almeida Theatre, directed by Indhu Rubasingham.
Jenny played the central role of Mama Nadi, who runs a bar in the civil war torn Democratic Republic of Congo. The play follows the efforts of Nadi to shelter the women working for her from the conflict outside and their resolve to survive despite the atrocities they have experienced.
Ruined opened to a host of glowing reviews and Jenny received the Critics Circle Best Actress Award in recognition of her performance.
She subsequently reprised the role of Mama Nadi in 2011 at the Arena Stage in Washington DC, directed by Charles Randolph Wright.
