AIRS SUNDAY, 4/29/12, 8:00 - 10:00 pm on LA THEATRE WORKS

L.A. Theatre Works' Radio Theatre Series will air Betrayed, written by George Packer, directed by Pippin Parker and featuring Sevan Greene and Waleed F. Zuaiter. The broadcast can be heard locally in Southern California on Sunday, April 29 from 8 -10 pm on 90.7 FM KPFK .

Journalist George Packer came to Baghdad in 2003 as a staff writer for the New Yorker and, from his experiences there, produced Betrayed, a play based on the real-life struggles of Iraqi interpreters working for American forces. Emboldened by optimism and the promise of a new era in their homeland, the translators, Adnan and Laith, are forced to cross continually between the Green and Red Zones, each time risking their own lives and those of their loved ones. Soon, they find themselves faced with painful and unanswerable questions about faith, honor, and the meaning of home.
