The Dig: Death, Genesis, and the Double Helix

Arts and Performance, Global History and Culture, Teen Approved

An American archaeologist is summoned to a dig in the ancient Arab-Hebrew town of Jaffa. They've found something -- something that could change everything. She's the only one who can tell them what it is. And her mother just died. And there's a lizard in her bathtub. This one-woman comedic play written and performed by Stacie Chaiken is a must-see.
