From: Political Theatre & Social Justice PlaysWhat readers are saying
Readers have a mixed impression of the play, with some feeling it lacks depth and originality. One reviewer describes it as overly academic and unengaging, comparing it to fan fiction.
Synopsis
Michaela, an African American dean at a major American university, summons Alan, a renowned professor of cultural psychology, in response to student protest over his controversial paper on female initiation rites in sub-Saharan Africa.
But dormant feelings from an affair years earlier turn a heated argument over science and cultural pluralism into a knock-down, drag-out fight.
Rozin's provocative play shatters the ivory tower of academia, upending questions of privilege and Western morality.
