Video: Get A First Look At Philadelphia Theatre Company's THE DUAT

On stage June 7 through June 23, 2024.

By:



Get a first look at Philadelphia Theatre Company's THE DUAT By Roger Q. Mason in this all-new video. The production is Directed by Taibi Magar. Taking its title from the mythical Egyptian afterlife, The Duat is a psychological portrait of Cornelius Johnson, a FBI counterintelligence officer, in a battle for his very soul.

Using spoken word, North African drumming, and gorgeous choreography, this one-person world premiere is a poetic and virtuosic story of redemption.
