Scena Theatre presents Submission

Imagine a Muslim political party, which embraces Islamist and patriarchal values, wins the 2022 France Presidential election.  All with support from Europe’s Socialist party.  The Submission explores this possible reality and its consequences.  Based on Michel Houellebecq’s best-selling novel in France, Germany, and Italy, it will engage and provoke your mind and heart.
