This is a very interesting article. You don't expect to see theatre that is addressing the war in Irag right now. And particularly from a non American's point of view. I also that it was very important that the playwright stood up for not including Iraqi characters. He said that he would not be able to accurately portray/represent then, and thinking so was exactly why the Scottish Army was over there in the first place. That is very key.
