Security (2021)
Kane Repertory Theatre - Virtual production
"Chaudry offers a well-crafted script that keeps its focus squarely on the interplay between victim and oppressor. Brian and Riaz are humanized, but also serve well as stand-ins for greater political constructs. We care what happens to them and at the same time see how their plight echoes the ongoing struggle between Empire and Colony."

"Kane Repertory Theatre’s online production of “Security” by Hammaad Chaudry is a powerful production, realistic and thought-provoking. In the role of the British detainee is Harsh J. Gagoomal, who also is an amazing actor, giving an equally powerful performance, with a strong intensity expected of a young male with the cynicism of youth. The chemistry between the two actors is what gives this amazing theatrical work its bite. "
