“Arabic to English”: Theatre Nova

Every Thurs.-Sun., June 225. Sarab Kamoo directs the pandemic-delayed premiere of David Wells’ 2020 drama about a high-stakes immigration case in which an Arab American interpreter, engaged to a White American lawyer, falls in love with her fiancé’s Arab American client. Escalating emotions and her need to choose between the prospect of a storybook American life and her desire to define her own identity complicate the already ticklish task of translation. 8 p.m. (Thurs.Sat.) & 2 p.m. (Sun.), Theatre Nova, 410 W. Huron St. Tickets $22 in advance at theatrenova.org & at the door. Mask strongly recommended. 635–8450.
