From the Tony Award-winning author of The Band's Visit and the writer behind Theater Wit's acclaimed production of The Whistleblower comes a provocative new play about identity, loyalty, and the complexities of allyship.

When Asaf's student asks him to sign a manifesto condemning police brutality, he wants to help — until he realizes the petition says more than he's ready to stand behind. As the debate roars through his Midwestern campus and his ex-girlfriend takes the lead, Asaf is pulled into a political storm that tests his convictions and his sense of self. Will his fumbling entrée into activism help or hurt the cause? The Ally, a darkly funny and deeply human new play by Itamar Moses (The Band's Visit, Completeness), asks us: just whose side are you on?

Itamar Moses brings his signature sharp wit and intellectual rigor to this timely exploration of campus politics, family dynamics, and the fraught terrain of contemporary social discourse. Only at Theater Wit.
