Two Rooms at Theatre South Playhouse

Two rooms, both stripped of almost everything. One in Beirut, where Michael is held hostage. One in the United States, where Lainie attempts to understand Michael's circumstances and connect with her husband. Weaving in and out of real conversations and illusions, Two Rooms tells the story of Lainie's struggle as she tries to decide the best maneuvers she can make to bring her husband home. Does she continue her silence as requested by her government contact from the State Department? Or does she align with a reporter eager to tell her story to the Nation? In your most vulnerable moments how do you know who to trust and what to believe? And if no one succeeds, where do you find the courage to move forward?
