Damascus

WEST COAST PREMIERE
Damascus follows the journey of Hassan, a financially struggling Somali-American taxi driver at the Minneapolis airport, and Lloyd, a stranded teenager who is desperate to catch a flight out of Chicago's O'Hare. Breaking rules to accept this unusual fare seems like it's worth the risk... until it isn't. An intense thriller about privilege, paranoia, and the assumptions we make about one another, Damascus is a breakthrough play from a writer whose star is rising.

"Damascus packs a big punch... a masterful, 90-minute spring to the finish line."
– Eugene Weekly

"A gripping, taut, thoughtful suspense drama... you can’t take your eyes off it for a second."
– Eugene Scene

"Damascus delivers relentless ferocity... a thriller that makes us ponder many of the contemporary issues that can keep us awake at night."
– The Register-Guard
