  • Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts 500 Castro Street Mountain View, CA, 94041 United States (map)

TheatreWorks Artistic Associate and Director of New Works Giovanna Sardelli (pictured) will direct the World Premiere of Kareem Fahmy's "A Distinct Society" as part of TheatreWorks Silicon Valley's 52nd Season. TheatreWorks will present "A Distinct Society" April 5-30, 2023 at Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts.

By chance and geographic anomaly, a quiet library in northern Vermont straddles the U.S.-Canada border. Most years it’s just a curiosity, but during the “Muslim ban,” it becomes an unlikely meeting place for an Iranian family who find themselves on opposite sides of an invisible divide. When the Québécoise librarian, a U.S. border patrol officer, and a local teenager become involved, all must choose between breaking the law and saving themselves.

This production runs from April 5 – 30, 2023 at Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts.
