A Distinct Society

A World Premiere in Assocation with TheatreWorks Silicon Valley! A sleepy library built atop the U.S./Canada border becomes an unlikely meeting place for separated families. Winner of the Next Act! New Play Summit, Fahmy tells the story of five people from different countries and cultures choosing between breaking the law or saving themselves, while trying desperately to understand one another. Alliances are built and broken, borders are straddled, but love and human connection prevail. Contains strong language.
