Between the Seas Festival Stages North American Premiere of COULD YOU PLEASE LOOK INTO THE CAMERA? This Weekend

By:

Between the Seas Festival is thrilled to present the North American premiere of Could You Please Look Into the Camera? by Syrian playwright Mohammad Al Attar in an English translation by Lisa Wedeen.

Performances will take place at Theaterlab, 357 West 36th Street tonight, May 28th at 8pm, May 29th at 8pm, May 30th at 8pm and May 31st at 5pm.

Could You Please Look Into the Camera? written in 2011, is based on interviews with detainees of the regime in the early days of the Syrian uprisings. Looking into the relationships that develop between Noura, a film-maker, and Zeid, Karim and Farah, the three young protesters, the play sheds light on the characters' personal conflicts and asks pressing questions about responsibility and action, giving an in depth, complex perspective on the beginning of the Syrian war.

The cast, led by director Aktina Stathaki, includes Tony Naumovski, Theodora Loukas, Sara Galassini and Yannick Trapmann O Brien.

Tickets are $20 (students/seniors $15 with valid ID) and can be purchased by calling OvationTix on 212.352.3101 or online at web.ovationtix.com/trs/pr/946283. For more information, visit www.theaterlabnyc.org.
