Gordon Stars in Virtual Play, 'Dried Fruit' by Mehrnaz Tiv, Produced by Permafrost Theatre Collective

In 2004 New York, two women are unlikely roommates: Zoë (Anna’s character), a self-made cam model pioneering the Internet pornography scene, and Sonia, a hijabi elementary school teacher struggling with derealization disorder in post 9/11 America. Like most nights, Zoë has a rich, older stranger coming over and Sonia is in another fight with her conservative boyfriend, Hasan. Zoë’s plans quickly change when the older man dies during sex. Zoë enlists Sonia’s help to cover up the accidental death. The two women (not friends, just roommates) embark in an evening of secrets, fights, and explore the meaning of female empowerment in the United States.
