Join the ACLU of Illinois at Silk Road Theatre Project for a Performance of Yussef El Guindi 's Back of the Throat

Followed by a Talk-Back with Edwin C. Yohnka, Director of Communications, ACLU of Illinois

About Back of the Throat

Two government officials pay an Arab-American man, Khalid, a seemingly innocuous visit. What begins as a "friendly" inquiry soon devolves into a chilling, full-blown investigation of Khalid's presumed ties to terrorists. At times surreal and comic, Back of the Throat examines the way in which facts, evidence and (mis)perceptions are used to distort the truth and how notions of cultural "otherness" impact the relationship between the accusers and the accused.

WHEN: Thursday, April 13 at 7:30 pm.

WHERE: Silk Road Theatre Project at the Historic Chicago Temple Building, 77 W. Washington St., Pierce Hall, Chicago
