From the best-selling first novel about contemporary Afghanistan to be written in English, this performance dramatically portrays the relationship of two boys on the opposite ends of this society – Amir, a privileged Pashtun and Hassan, a Hazara servant. Surprising events occur with the backdrop of the beauty and agony of 1970's Afghanistan – a world in turmoil. This one-hour verbatim adaptation is recommended for book groups.

She just wanted a better life – now she's stuck in the middle of a blizzard wearing nothing but a skimpy showgirl dress, held hostage by a love-struck cowboy. And who's that drunk professor with the video camera hitting on all the young ladies? And what about all the scary cops, the karaoke machine, and the dance numbers? I don't think we're in Kansas anymore...

Tom Rush's impact on the American music scene has been profound. He helped shape the folk revival in the '60s and the renaissance of the '80s and '90s, his music having left its stamp on generations of artists. James Taylor told Rolling Stone, "Tom was not only one of my early heroes, but also one of my main influences." His distinctive guitar style and expressive voice have made him a legend to audiences around the world. His shows are filled with the rib-aching laughter of terrific story-telling, the sweet melancholy of ballads and the passion of gritty blues.
