VIDEO: A Montage of Scenes From J.T. Rogers' Fascinating OSLO

A three-hour long play about peace negotiations many not sound like the most exciting theatre in the world, but J.T. Rogers' OSLO, which opened July 11th at the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater (150 West 65 Street), has been lavishly praised by critics and ticket-buyers alike as a fascinating, emotional and darkly comic drama.

Oslo tells the true, but until now, untold story of how one young couple, Norwegian diplomat Mona Juul (Jennifer Ehle) and her husband social scientist Terje Rød-Larsen (Jefferson Mays), planned and orchestrated top-secret, high-level meetings between the State of Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization, which culminated in the signing of the historic 1993 Oslo Accords.

Directed by Bartlett Sher, The cast of OSLO also includes Michael Aronov, Adam Dannheisser, Daniel Jenkins, Dariush Kashani, Daniel Oreskes, Henny Russell, Joseph Siravo, and T. Ryder Smith.
