Who's Your Baghdaddy, or How I Started the Iraq War
by Marshall Pailet, A.D. Penedo
Synopsis
THE STORY: The show begins in a church basement, where disgraced spies, along with the unwitting audience, gather for a support group meeting.
The action soon shifts to Frankfurt Airport, where a mysterious Iraqi defector claims he built secret Iraqi bio-weapons labs.
At CIA headquarters, our other characters are contending with their own ambitions, rash decisions, inflexible bosses, unrequited affections, and unremitting boredom--when a fax arrives from Germany, and with it a golden opportunity.
If the defector's story holds up, it will be the ticket out of the basement and into a corner office.
It's all fun and games until the looming cataclysm changes everything.
Press Reviews
"[WHO'S YOUR BAGHDADDY is] two hours of high-paced pondering that will make you laugh, think, and silently wonder what secrets are kept and the casualties they reap."
