Story

Roundabout brings ENGLISH, by Sanaz Toossi, home to Broadway, after co-producing its world premiere with Atlantic Theater Company. Knud Adams (Primary Trust) once again directs this Pulitzer Prize-winning play about the universal foibles of language and miscommunication.

The comedy unfolds in an Iranian classroom where adult English learners practice for their proficiency exam. As they leapfrog through a linguistic playground, their wildly different dreams, frustrations, and secrets come to light.

Can they overcome the limits of language to discover what they really want to say?
