1001

by Jason Grote

Presented by Company One

A seductive fever-dream of a play, Grote's kaleidoscopic reinvention of the Arabian Nights proves to be a timely tale as America reflects on the 10 year anniversary of 9/11. 1001's rich fantasia conjures a storybook world that dissolves, at a moment's notice, into an apocalyptic, 21st-century landscape. Stories like Sinbad the Sailor and Aladdin and His Magic Lamp come to life, making 1001 an explosive, brilliant work about America, the power of story, and identity.
