Threesome at Chelsea Theatre Works

For Egyptian-American couple Leila and Rashid, two's company, but three just may be the magic number. In playwright Yussef El Guindi's Threesome, the struggling couple is looking to rekindle the passion in their relationship by inviting a white American stranger into their bedroom. What begins as a hilariously awkward evening soon becomes an experience fraught with secrets, shedding light on a woman trying to reclaim her body and her own personal narrative after an attack in Eqypt during the Arab Spring. The provocative drama raises issues of sexism, possession and independence. Watch the tangled tale unfold when Threesome comes to Apollinaire Theatre Company at Chelsea Theatre Works.
