By Tom Coash
Directed by Leah C. Gardiner
Starring Hend Ayoub andĀ Donnetta Lavinia Grays

Two college students; one American, one Egyptian; both Muslim; find friendship amidst political unrest in Cairo.Ā  Told with honesty and humor, it’s ā€œa brave new work which addresses the thorny crosscurrents of cultural identityā€ – Broadway World.

This powerful new work is the winner of the Edgerton Foundation National New Play Award and the American Theatre Critics Associationā€™s M. Elizabeth Osborn Award.

ā€œMesmerizingā€¦Coashā€™s focus is on the Middle East, but his overall message is a universal one. No matter what our race, nationality, sexuality or religious and political beliefs, weā€™re all subject to stereotypes. ā€œVeilsā€ reminds us of the importance of seeing and understanding the people behind those all-too-often condemning generalizations.ā€ ā€“Portland Press Herald (Maine)
