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?
