Camp David

Synopsis:
Sixty-two miles north of Washington, DC, nestled in Catoctin Mountain Park, lies the clandestine retreat known as Camp David. For thirteen tumultuous days, President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn host Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin and Egyptian President Anwar Sadat in an attempt to create the impossible: Peace in the Middle East. How could such a massive thing be done in such a short amount of time? Artistic Director Molly Smith directs the world premiere of Pulitzer Prize-winning author Lawrence Wright's incredible new play based on incredibly true events.

My Trip to Al-Qaeda

Synopsis:
arguably the individual who knows more about Al-Qaeda than any other American," author Wright "follows in Al Gore's footsteps by using facts, figures and Powerpoint to weave the details of a complex global issue-in this case the rise of Al-Qaeda-into a compelling, Dramatic, and unquestionably timely story. In My Trip to Al-Qaeda, Wright utilizes never-before-seen evidence, transcripts, and court documents to illustrate how this organization fomented and implemented their attack on America and became a defining force in America's foreign policy and national psyche.
