Summary
In this darkly comic, poignant, and at times surreal play, two couples in Tunisia—one Muslim and one Jewish—share a deep and complicated friendship before the German takeover of their country in World War 2. Now under a brutal regime, they face the truth about their long-simmering feelings about friendship and romance as they struggle to save themselves from a Nazi commandant—named Grandma.
