David Greig's latest play was a critical hit at last year's Edinburgh fringe and is one of three plays he has penned in the past 18 months. This is a subtle thriller about an Englishman out of his depth in the Middle East, which uses gentle humour and slow-building rapport rather than sudden shocks or radical plot twists.
Paul is in Syria to do a book deal. His contact is beautiful, mysterious Muna, whose ex-lovers and confidants skirt the action. She is at first amused and then attracted by this buffoonish Englishman whose words have the power to counter political extremism.
A simmering, measured look at cultural differences with war and suffering in the background, and witty, attractive human interest to the fore.
