IN THE HEART OF AMERICA
by Naomi Wallace
directed by Seth Rozin
PHILADELPHIA PREMIERE
Raw and poetic, In the Heart of America is a highly theatrical exploration
of souls in turmoil. Set in the Kuwaiti desert, two American soldiers --
one white and one Palestinian-- fall in love. Each man wrestles with his
own passions and demons as the play shifts fluidly between the past and
present, reality and spirit world. Placed at the intersection of
sensuality and brutality, In the Heart of America exposes our national
love affair with violence from Vietnam to the Persian Gulf. InterAct is
proud to be the first company in Philadelphia to present this work by
celebrated playwright Naomi Wallace, whose play reminds us that wounded
souls never rest.
