    WOW. What a gorgeous script. I was entranced every step of the way, one of the best one-person shows I've ever read. It is so utterly charming, hilarious, and heart breaking. I hope that I can catch it one day live and in person.

    Through a single actress, Denmo Ibrahim spins an incredibly touching father-daughter tale spanning a US government office, an airport and a reunion twenty-five years in the making. Ibrahim is an incredible storyteller. Her characters, Mohammed and Layla, are chatty and fascinating, both of blooming story and casual sincerity. Their respective journeys' hiccups will be familiar to those of us who have to navigate the world as people of color. Mohammed keeps his temper through a bureaucratic run-around. Layla turns the disarming charm on just to request a flight seat change. You'll root for them. This is some beautiful work.

    This play, while shorter in length, is a great example of a first generation Arab-American and the racial tensions that occur in their daily life. The play beautifully shows the family dynamics that occur when one must alter their cultural values and self identity to blend in with "White America". Overall, this play was an excellent read and deserves the hype surrounding it.
