    Michaela, an African American dean at a major American university, summons Alan, a renowned professor of cultural psychology, in response to student protest over his controversial paper on female initiation rites in sub-Saharan Africa.

Rozin's provocative play shatters the ivory tower of academia, upending questions of privilege and Western morality.
