Goin' Off-Off Broadway

Just found out a short play of mine is going to be performed at the Wings Theatre this April. "(before) The Rubaiyyat of Omar Khayaam," will be directed by Tracy Francis Off-Off Broadway as part of the Noor Play Festival, an Equity Showcase of plays dealing with the Middle East.

"(before) The Rubaiyyat of Omar Khayaam" was developed as part of PlayGround, in residence at Berkeley Rep, and takes a comedic look at the moment just before Persian scholar Omar Khayaam decided to become a Sufi poet. During his heated conversation with a clay bowl, Omar realizes that it’s best to seek closeness with god while he’s still alive, instead of waiting until he reaches the afterlife.
