Michael is an American teacher held hostage in a dark room after being captured in Beirut. Lainie, his wife, holds a vigil for him in an empty room in their house outside DC. As he dictates unsent letters to her from his cell, she vies between Walker, a journalist intent to tell her story to the public and Ellen, a State Department official who wants to keep her quiet.
Two Rooms is written by Pulitzer Prize winning and Tony Award nominee Lee Blessing. Originally commissioned and produced in 1988, Two Rooms was named Best Play of the Year by Time Magazine. This is the second production by Same Boat Theatre, a Hamilton-based theatre company dedicated to telling authentic and provocative stories onstage that challenge the heart and confront the mind. Previously, Same Boat Theatre produced the acclaimed Finding Mr. Right at the 2015 Hamilton Fringe Festival.
