A darkly comic political thriller about the CIA-backed coup that reshaped Iran.
The CIA walks into a Tehran courtyard in 1953. What happens next shaped the next seventy years of Middle Eastern politics. In this darkly comic spy thriller a swimming pool becomes a nation, tennis becomes oil politics, and politeness becomes warfare. You’ve never seen American foreign policy look this seductive—or this damning.

Veal
By Jojo Jones
Undermain Theatre
February 25- March 21, 2027
Directed by Christina Cranshaw
Scenic Design: L. Mazur
What if absolute, reigning power fell into the hands of someone with a taste for nostalgia, lunchables, and holds a middle school grudge? Chelsea, Queen of North America, relishes her power over those who can’t quite remember history—or was it history class? In her queendom, governing is far less interesting than revenge. What begins as a class reunion quickly curdles into something far more sinister. Wickedly funny, unsettling, and relentlessly satirical, VEAL peels back the comforting myths of justice to reveal something far more dangerous: the intoxicating pleasure of making someone else suffer.

This tense and riveting play, which received three Tony Award nominations and was adapted into an award-winning film, is a powerful drama set in the 1980s in a quiet, secluded convent. It explores the volatile intersection of faith, science, and moral conviction. When Agnes, a fragile and innocent young nun, faces a traumatic crisis involving a seemingly miraculous birth – and subsequent death – of her newborn child, yet having no memory of how she became pregnant, a determined psychiatrist arrives on the scene to uncover the truth.
This gripping story of suspense and revelation challenges us to confront the consequences of our lives and grapple with questions that remain unanswered.
In the dark times
Will there also be singing?
Yes, there will also be singing.
About the dark times. -Bertolt Brecht
