MOSQUE4MOSQUE’s compelling protagonist, Ibrahim, is a self-destructive millennial desperate to understand himself. Assimilation doesn’t feel right, but neither does strict adherence to Islam. He loves his white boyfriend, but knows there’s a part of him he’ll never understand. He resents and fiercely loves his mother, and he alternately wants his sister Lena to be his friend or his child.
M4M defies categorization: it’s a queer play, an immigrant play, a family play—ultimately, it’s a story about the complexities of love and identity, with an ending that’s a call to action.
