Three young Americans meet while studying abroad in Belgium. When their wit, charm, and sex appeal casts a spell on a wealthy older gentleman, it seems like a golden opportunity to explore a new world. Letter from Algeria reveals the class envy and emotional manipulation that dwell just below the surface of the ex-pat life, where everyone is trying to reinvent themselves.

Sex. Drugs. Imperialism. Everybody's got something to write home about.

Cast has not yet been announced. The production team includes Travis McHale (set and lighting design), Amanda Jenks (costume design), Kate Middleton (assistant director), Dan Wheeless (technical director), Wade Dansby (graphic designer) and Devan Hibbard (stage manager).
