A world premiere play by Theresa Rebeck. Directed by Marc Masterson. The location: Mecca, Saudi Arabia. The story: The British consul pours tea for the American undersecretary of state, avoiding her questions—with answers to ones she hasn’t even asked. (Diplomacy at work.) In the street below, a group of Saudi women sets in motion a carefully planned protest. The results are devastating enough to ignite a battle of wills and wits—now that a life hangs in the balance. A riveting story by a prolific Broadway veteran and Pulitzer Prize finalist.

Warning: Contains profanity.
