From the first novel about
contemporary Afghanistan to be written in English, this
performance dramatically portrays the relationship of two
boys - Amir, a privileged Pashtun and Hassan, a Hazara
servant. Surprising events occur with the backdrop of
1970’s Afghanistan in turmoil. Through the eyes of the
young protagonist, Amir, the actor takes us on a
heartbreaking journey of friendship and betrayal in a
society of severe class division. We meet upwards of eight
characters, each fully realized by this virtuosic performer.
This Literature to Life award winner features a
verbatim performance from the first half of this best
selling contemporary novel by Khaled Hosseini. |
