Ski Dubai August 1, 2009

Steppenwolf presents 'Ski Dubai' by Laura Jacqmin, as part of the company's annual First Look Repertory of New Work. Rachel, a young Environmental Friendliness Consultant, moves from New York to steamy Dubai to work on a man-made island teeming with skyscrapers and luxury hotels. Trying to uphold her "green" principles in a hotbed of capitalism, she navigates a stream of quirky displaced internationals battling loneliness and isolation in a flashy, modern pseudo-city.
