Mia, an American conflict photographer, wakes up at the site of a massacre in Syria, not sure how she got there. With her Turkish girlfriend Derya and her Californian mother Jane, Mia must slowly piece together the details of her past to find out what happened. Mona Mansour’s beautifully human and surprisingly humorous play asks what it would mean for our souls—personally and as a nation—if we were to truly see the impact of our actions.

Set in a small Midwestern town, Well, I'll Let You Go is a portrait of a woman and a community in crisis.

Chicago 1893. Meet Lucy, a member of Buffalo Bill's Wild West, in town to perform for crowds at the World's Fair. She quickly discovers that she's not interested in performing: all she wants is to be the audience and bear witness to this historic event. As she explores the grounds with Jem, a Columbian Guard, they learn of the modern wonders that the World's Columbian Exposition has to offer, becoming entranced by all of the possibilities that lie in their future.

Unseen Theme

From SALONIKA, a new musical by Avi Amon & Julia Gytri
Featuring Caesar Samayoa & Jessica Carvo

1941. As a feared member of the Jewish resistance in Greece, the TUTOR must flee his home in Salonika and leave behind his most beloved pupil, a young BOY who has also suffered at the hand of the ever-encroaching Axis powers. While neither yet understands how the war will alter their lives, the TUTOR reminds his BOY that the best storytellers have courage to begin a story when the ending is uncertain, reassuring him that once two people’s tales intersect, they cannot be unbound.

From SALONIKA, a new musical by Avi Amon & Julia Gytri

The absurd silliness of Ottoman shadow puppets illustrate the menacing threat of a predator as a SOLDIER plays with his prey. A group of Greeks refuse to give up their Jewish friend to the SOLDIER, highlighting the lengths ordinary citizens can go to when the difference between right and wrong is so clear. In his attempts to identify the Jewish TUTOR, the SOLDIER reveals the extent of his hatred and corruption, animalizing the man he considers to be “the other”.

Eeny Meeny Miney Mo

From SALONIKA, a new musical by Avi Amon & Julia Gytri

In 1944, Mt. Vesuvius erupted, sending ash through the air all the way to the sea. This caused a black snow to fall over much of Greece, fulfilling the Sephardic Jewish prophecy, “When the black snow falls, they will be taken”. This is a painting of a song, a musical poem that evokes bad omens and the horrors to come.

Mama is up early to prepare an important meal, and even with her family on hand to help, time is running short.
