AN APOLOGY TO AND FROM A MOTHER

Adil Mansoor is a Virgo Pakistani-American theater queerdo. His mother is an Aquarian hijabi Quranic scholar. Since she discovered Adil’s queerness online, their once-close bond now needs rescue. In Amm(i)gone, a portmanteau of “ammi” (“mother” in Urdu) and the Greek heroine Antigone, Mansoor invites us on a journey of heartbreak and repair between mother and son as they embark on an examination and translation of Sophocles’ Antigone into Urdu. Passionately mining Greek tragedy, Islam, and their own memories, they seek to recover their love across faith.

This co-presentation with Theater Mu is part of Amm(i)gone’s national tour, produced by Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company and PlayCo in association with Kelly Strayhorn Theater.
