Golden Thread 2025 Season
Workshop Presentation part of New Threads Reading Series:
ORIENTAL by Evren Odcikin
Rehearsal begins: 5/27
Performances: 6/7 and 6/8
SYNOPSIS: Kaan has been commissioned to make an adaptation of 1001 Nights from a Very Important Theater Company, and asked to bring his immigrant, Muslim, queer perspective to it. Unfortunately, he is not sure what all that means. As his characters revolt and refuse to tell the stories that he requires of them, can Kaan face his demons, change the minds and hearts of his audience, and save all the women of the kingdom in the process? ORIENTAL is an absurdist look at the hilarious knots SWANA creatives must tie themselves in to tell their stories and make a career in the American theatre.
THE RETURN by Hanna Eady and Edward Mast
Rehearsals begin: July 1 (20 hours per week)
Performances: July – August 24th
SYNOPSIS: THE RETURN is a one-act, 70-minute play that starts simply with two people meeting in an auto-body shop in the mid-sized city Herzliya. They might or might not have known each other in the past. One of them is Palestinian, one of them is Israeli Jewish, and by the end of the play, both of their lives will be changed forever by the realities that surround them.
PILGRIMAGE by Humaira Ghilzai and Bridgette Dutta Portman
Rehearsals start: 9/15 (20 hours per week)
Opening: 10/27
Run: 10/31 through 11/8
SYNOPSIS: Five women embark on a pilgrimage to Mecca. Noor, an Afghan American immigrant, must fulfill her sister’s last wish. Her daughter, Maryam, a tech CEO, seeks to evade her legal woes, while Noor’s nieces—estranged sisters Sosan and Nadia—must complete the pilgrimage to claim their inheritance. Meanwhile, Fatima, a Black Muslim convert and Nadia’s best friend, hopes to find her biological mother. Will this pilgrimage bring the five women closer, or will secrets, rivalries, and old wounds tear them apart?
