Play Title:Enemies: Foreign and Domestic
Runtime:61-90 minutes
Synopsis:because counter-terrorism begins at home…

Enemies: Foreign and Domestic is a darkly comic intersection of foreign “black ops” and family politics. Recipient, 2015 Theatre Bay Area Award for “Outstanding World Premiere Play.”

Meg Mahoney arrives at her mother’s home smoldering with resentments, ready to have her childhood pain acknowledged at last. But her family won’t recognize her grievances. What’s more, her mother’s Muslim caregiver activates Meg’s fear and hostility. The prodigal daughter’s return ignites a culture clash that opens an unexpected window onto intimate and institutional aggression – at home and overseas. This domestic comedy-drama with a sharp political edge premiered February 2015 at Central Works in Berkeley, CA. Content note: vivid descriptions of domestic abuse, rape.
