Southeastern Premiere - 'Betrayed' By George Packer
GableStage at the Biltmore presents the Southeastern Premiere of Betrayed by George Packer---opening August 16th and running thru September 14th.
The play will be directed by GableStage's Producing Artistic Director, Joseph Adler. The cast includes Antonio Amadeo, Todd Allen Durkin, Ceci Fernandez, John Manzelli, Bill Schwartz and Ricky Waugh.
In early 2007, George Packer published an article in The New Yorker about Iraqi interpreters who jeopardized their lives on behalf of the Americans in Iraq, with little or no U.S. protection or security. The article drew national attention to the humanitarian crisis and moral scandal.
Betrayed, based on Mr. Packer's interviews in Baghdad, tells the story of three young Iraqis - two men and one woman - motivated to risk everything by America's promise of freedom. The play explores the complex relationships among the Iraqis themselves, and with their American supervisor, as they struggle to find purpose while a country collapses around them.
New York Times Critic's Pick!
"An extraordinary achievement!" –The New Yorker
"More than merely a very fine play; it is a challenge to all Americans to become human beings. Every American should see it at least once; if involved in government, at least twice! It would melt a heart of stone; perhaps even a stone without a heart!" -John Simon, Bloomberg News
