Title: The road to Damascus
Description: As full-scale civil war rages in Syria, a bomb explodes in Manhattan and all roads lead to Damascus. A peace-seeking African Pope is elected to the Vatican and a third-party president is in power in the U.S. With nuclear war looming, will the new Pope intervene directly in American foreign policy, or will he accede to the demands of Washington? Riddled iwth international intrigue, Tom Dulack's astonishingly prescient play imagines a world ripped from today's headlines.
