An absorbing study of attitudes towards outsiders, spanning two continents and sixty years. 1949. Small town Colorado. A group of regular American students struggle to accept a foreigner in their midst; their unthinking behaviour will have terrible consequences that are to change world history. In London, sixty years later, a university professor’s work analysing those consequences takes on a frightening personal dimension when Layla Ahmad walks into his office... Steve Waters' play Ignorance/Jahiliyyah was first performed at Hampstead Theatre, London, in 2012.
