The Staged Reading is approximately 120 minutes with 1 intermission.

Haunted by painful memories and dressed in perpetual mourning, Yasmina yearns for the homeland she was forced to escape. When she meets an Iraqi American who has willingly abandoned the heritage they share, she wrestles not only with the torments of her past but with a future that confounds her. Should she choose love and a new life in America or return home to help rebuild a shattered people? Presented in collaboration with the Ismaili Community of Chicago, an Artistic and Cultural Diversity Initiative funded by The Chicago Community Trust.
