Synopsis

"A stunning drama about life in the shadow of September 11th and the Iraq war."—Time

NY Observer

The finest new American play I've seen in a long while...DYING CITY is a political play and also a psychodrama about what Arthur Miller called the politics of the soul. It's about public conscience and private grief, and real and symbolic catastrophes.
