The specter of a massacre looms as the Akawi family receives an unexpected visitor that brings the past rushing back and alters the course of events to come.
Ismails parents lived through the brunt of the civil war in Beirut in the 1970s and early '80s and gave birth to three children amidst the unspeakable bloodshed of that conflict and the Israeli invasion of 1982. Khalidi and his family fled to the United States in 1983, never to return. His play, Sabra Falling, is an ode to his parents and to the politics, the humor, the tragedy and the importance of that historical moment.
Khalidi spent two weeks in the summer of 2016 as artist in residence at Pangea while he workshopped and wrote the play. We are excited to welcome him back in Fall 2017 for the world premiere of Sabra Falling
