Space Limited: Reservations Suggested
Email: RSVP@Noortheatre.org Baba
written and performed by Denmo Ibrahim
directed by Isis Saratial Misdary
We are excited to present Baba, a wildly unexpected story of love and forgiveness between a daughter and the memory of her estranged Egyptian father. As she embodies his last crucial moments in the U.S. waiting for a passport, she realizes – through literally being in his shoes – why kidnapping his child was the only solution left. Hailed by nytheatre.com as “stunning and revelatory,” Baba and this exciting new artist are not to be missed!
