The Invisible Hand

A theatre company in the Tampa Bay area just completed its run of a very intriguing play. It's called The Invisible Hand, a 2012 play written by Ayad Akhtar.

In remote Pakistan, Nick Bright, an American and Citibank employee in his 30s, awaits his fate. A successful financial trader, Nick is kidnapped by an Islamic militant group, but with no one negotiating his release, he agrees to an unusual plan. He will earn his own ransom by helping his captors manipulate and master the world commodities and currency markets.

The play's language is salty and the story is adult in nature. But the material is thought provoking. I encourage you to check it out!
