When an American translator is sent into a U.S. war zone in the Middle East, a friendly neighbor volunteers to help out his wife and young son. As events abroad spiral out of control, the lives of all the characters are turned upside down. The Language of Trees is a boldly theatrical and provocative new play about the fragility of language, the ecology of war and the meaning of neighborliness in an age of terror.
Steven Levenson's plays include The Language of Trees, Girls Day, and Almost Stuck. Alex Timbers is an OBIE Award-winning director and Artistic Director of Les Freres Corbusier. Recent Directing credits include: Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson (Center Theatre Group, LA; co-written with Michael Friedman) and Gutenberg! The Musical! (Drama Desk nom.- Best Director of a Musical).
