An American Brat
houstonpress.com: "Anyone who thinks the generation gap closed way back in the 1970s needs a ticket to Bapsi Sidhwa's hilarious new play An American Brat. Based on the Pakistani-born writer's novel of the same title, the charming story, now playing at Stages Theatre, demonstrates how wide that chasm between parents and children remains. Not only is it still here, it crosses cultural, religious and national boundaries and affects us in ways that are both outrageously funny and horribly hurtful."

First of all, I don't know what the writer of this review was thinking...the generation gap being dead in this day and age? Seriously, come on. Anyways, this play seems to have an interesting concept that goes beyond the generation gap thing that the writer is focusing on, in this day and age where there is a strong media center around strict religious guidelines, as in, if you don't follow everything to the 'T' you aren't actually apart of that religion even though cultural beliefs continue to change.
