October 19 - November 8

Aftermath follows 28-year-old freelance journalist Josh Goldman, who has just survived a Taliban kidnapping in Afghanistan and is now recovering in his childhood home with his parents. As Josh struggles to reconnect with his family and make sense of what he's endured, we learn how the young journalist found the courage to take on his most dangerous assignment, and at what cost. This timely drama examines questions of moral responsibility, privilege, and sacrifice in the context of global political conflict and family ties. 

The production is being staged at the Mezzanine Theatre at the A.R.T./New York Theatres, located at 502 West 53rd Street, New York, NY 10019.
