Is This a Room

Concept and Original Direction by Tina Satter
Directed by Michelle Bellaver

A true story. June 3, 2017. A 25-year-old former Air Force linguist named Reality Winner is surprised at her home by the FBI, interrogated, and charged. The verbatim FBI transcript of her interrogation is the heart of “Is This a Room,” conceived as a play by Obie Award-winner Tina Satter, in which an extraordinary human drama unfolds between the complex and witty Reality, and the agents who question her. As Reality’s autonomy shrinks before her eyes, a simmering real-life thriller emerges, asking what it is to have honor in this American moment, and how the personal can reverberate globally.
