Betrayed - Based on journalist-playwright George Packer's original article in The New Yorker, Betrayed is a haunting new play about three Iraqi translators who risk everything for America's promise of freedom, even as their own country collapses around them. Original New York cast members Mike Doyle (Law and Order: SVU), Sevan Greene, Waleed F. Zuaiter and Jeremy Beck are joined by Andrea Gabriel, John Getz and Sam Kanater under the guidance of original director Pippin Parker. Winner of the 2008 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding New Play. All performances are recorded to air on LATW's syndicated radio theater series, The Play's The Thing, which broadcasts weekly on public radio stations nationwide.
