  3. Bengal Tiger at The Baghdad Zoo


The lives of two American Marines and an Iraqi translator are forever changed by an encounter with a quick-witted tiger who haunts the streets of war-torn Baghdad attempting to find meaning, forgiveness, and redemption amidst the city’s ruins. Rajiv Joseph’s groundbreaking new American play explores both the power and the perils of human nature.

It premiered on Broadway in 2011 and was nominated for several Tony Awards, including Best Play. The production, notable for its critical acclaim and the involvement of Robin Williams as the Tiger, highlighted the complexities of life and death in a war-torn city.
