SYNOPSIS:

In 2003, newly-wed Layal and her family prepare to immigrate from Baghdad, Iraq, to a Chicago suburb. Seventeen years later, Layal’s life looks unimaginably different from what she had envisioned two decades prior, as she and her siblings explore queerness, face their grief, and discover what it takes to make home in a new place. Don’t miss this moving, powerful new play’s world premiere on the Owen Stage—fresh from Goodman’s New Stages and Future Labs programs.



Directed by Sivan Battat

Featuring Waseem Alzer, Atra Asdou, Ali Louis Bourzgui, Mattico David, Becca Khalil, Angel Alzeidan, Chris Khoshaba, Jonathan Shaboo, Shadee Vossoughi
