Iraq, 2005, a Shiite and a Sunni enter a small hotel to meet with an American Journalist, George Packer, to give an insider’s overview of life in Iraq since the arrival of American Forces.  Both men eagerly welcomed the Americans and readily went to work for the American Consulate in Baghdad.  Over time, however, working for the Americans became increasingly dangerous.  The Americans don’t trust the Iraqi, and now, many of their own countrymen consider them traitors and hunt them as the enemy.  The horrors of life in Iraq and the struggle to survive makes for edge-of-your-seat drama.  We are thrilled to present the Texas premiere of this amazing play, adapted by Mr. Packer, author of the acclaimed book “The Assassins’ Gate: America in Iraq,” from an article he wrote for The New Yorker in March 2007.
