About Home Below Zero:

Fresh out of Iraq, Khaled shows up at his best friend's doorstep in America. Problem is, Jeff’s been in a coma since a bomb blew up his Humvee three weeks earlier—and Jeff's father blames Khaled and everyone who looks like him. But Khaled has traveled far with no one else to turn to and the two men are forced to wait it out together. In the long silence an unexpected common language emerges unleashing centuries of rage and resentment...and music.  A heavy metal clash between Midwest and Middle East.

About the playwright Dan Dietz:

Dan Dietz’s plays include tempOdyssey, Americamisfit and The Sandreckoner.  His work has been commissioned, developed and presented at such venues as Actors Theatre of Louisville, the Guthrie Theater, the Public Theater, the Kennedy Center, Rattlestick Playwrights Theater, the Playwrights’ Center and the Lark Play Development Center.  Dietz has been an NEA/TCG Theatre Residency recipient, an NNPN Rolling World Premiere recipient, a Jerome Fellow, and a James A. Michener Fellow.  Dietz has twice been a recipient of the Heideman Award.  His latest play, Clementine in the Lower Nine, will have its world premiere at TheatreWorks (Palo Alto, CA) in October 2011.

Mission

Playwrights Foundation is dedicated to discovering and supporting local and national American playwrights across a broad spectrum of artistic and career positions, in the inception and development of new plays that speak to and from an increasingly diverse society. Founded on a deeply held belief that the relevance and vitality of American theater depends upon a continual infusion of new work, Playwrights Foundation sustains a commitment to the playwright, who we regard as the creative wellspring of theater.
