DESCRIPTION

From the acclaimed playwright who brought us the world-premiere of Becky's New Car in 2008, comes this astutely funny dramatic thriller brimming with edge of your seat intrigue. In a New York dive bar five years after 9/11, a young couple find themselves face to face with a mysterious stranger who turns what seems like harmless conspiracy theories into a continuous stream of surprising and dangerous revelations in this eye-opening look at the events that forever changed our country.
