 World Premiere presented by
Chicago’s Silk Road Theatre Project
February 21 – March 30, 2008
Directed by Patrizia Acerra
A darkly humorous and sensual look at identity, media-representation, love and lust in the Arab American community. Fueled by frustration over the limited Arab voices in the US media, a struggling writer, Gamal, engages in a prank campaign to shake up the system. But those in power have a way of turning the tables. When Gamal's lover, Noor, is convinced by a prominent publisher to alter her novel to satisfy Western hunger for "Orientalist" fare, Gamal lashes out at his own community. The results are staggering. Mature audiences only.
