A Colorado Premier!
Tony Award-winning playwright Mary Zimmerman�s acclaimed adaptation weaves ancient tales of wonder into a rich and poetic testament to the transformational power of storytelling. King Shahryar marries, loves, and then kills a young woman each night - until he encounters Scheherezade. For one thousand and one nights, he delays her murder as he eagerly awaits her next tale of love, lust, hilarity, or sorrow. A passionate tribute to the land that produced the encyclopedia of human experience, imagination, and poetry that is The Arabian Nights.
