A Thousand Splendid Suns

Seattle Repertory Theatre
155 Mercer Street Seattle

Based on Khaled Hosseini's sweeping, internationally best-selling novel, A Thousand Splendid Suns is the tale of the unlikely connection that blossoms between two Afghan women in war-torn Kabul. As rockets shriek down from the heavens, the friendship of Laila and Mariam develops into an iron-bound rapport, forged by their defiance of a life beset by senseless tyranny. Secrets, lies and pacts are made in this harrowing yet ultimately beautiful piece about the true cost of sacrifice. Adapted for the stage by acclaimed Irish-Indian playwright Ursula Rani Sarma, this gripping drama is set to unfold at Seattle's Bagley Wright Theatre.
