A summer house will adorn the garden of the Culture Minister of Aqaat, designed by American architect Andrew Hackett. The Culture Minoster takes a while to make up his mind and likes to skirmish over the renderings -- and his favorite Hollywood movies. Will the house be built before the two men, like their countries, change loyalties and find themselves caught up in history? In this cat-and-mouse game set against a global background, cultures clash and world views are turned upside down. From the acclaimed writer for stage, screen and television -- a new play for South Coast Repertory audiences. 714.708.5555 |
