**_New York Times_ Critic's Pick**  “Few are the standout gems—those plays that conquer an audience so wholly you feel a delicious two-way crackle in the room. _English_ is one such gem.” (Tim Teeman, _The Daily Beast_). Straight off their critically acclaimed Broadway run, this strictly limited return engagement of this five time Tony nominated and Pulitzer Prize-winning sensation must end April 26. Written by **Sanaz Toossi** and directed by **Knud Adams**, “_English_ is a wonder, with unfailing wit, grace, and compassion” (Greg Evans, _Deadline_). Set in an Iranian classroom where four adult students and their teacher leapfrog through a linguistic playground, this is a funny, stunning triumph about the universal foibles of language and miscommunication. “The result is exquisite.” (Adam Feldman, _Time Out New York_). * * * The Farhang Foundation is the official cultural partner and sponsor of _ENGLISH _ * * * Read safety information [here](https://thewallis.org/safety).
