Alis work has been performed at various venues throughout London, including the Globe Theatre, Soho Theatre, Trafalgar Studios and Oval House. He has also had two plays performed at the Edinburgh fringe festival. In mid-2008 Ali was commissioned by Oran Mor theatre in Glasgow, to write UNDER MY SKIN, a play about an autopsy.

Synopsis: | Ali Muriel's Reality takes us into the world of conspiracy theories, the idea that it is the deliberate policy of a branch of the British government to create fear within the population. Jeremy Gates (James Howard), a university professor, uncovers a raft of evidence which tends to show this but he has a history of mental illness. He writes letters to the Prime Minister, even the Queen, to no avail and so tries to force his way into Thames House, the home of MI5, and so finds himself arrested and facing interrogation by a police office, a detective chief inspector (James Traherne). | |||||
