The true story of an American woman’s bicycle journey through the heart of the Middle East. Alone.

Two weeks before Christmas, Monica flew into the heart of the Persian Gulf to work a catering job at a royal wedding party and ended up biking across three countries in the Middle East. Alone. This play chronicles the true story of her desert odyssey. Watch the broke, blonde American swerve her bicycle through close encounters with military capture, sex tourism, Gulf royalty, three wedding parties and near death. As Monica perseveres in her adventure as a parade of one, defeating trouble at every turn, indulging her super-hero fetishism, she discovers her biggest adversary might be herself.

Join us for a post-performance discussion with Monica Hunken, Caroline Samponaro (Senior Director of Campaigns & Organizing, Transportation Alternatives), Helen Ho (Development Director of Recycle-A-Bicycle and founding member of the Biking Public Project), and Laura Solis (co- founder of WE Bike NYC- Women's Empowerment through Bicycles). The conversation will be moderated by members of NYBikeDance Anna N. Larson and Shilpa Narayan. Talk is included with ticket purchase.
