Published by Dramatists Play Service
3 Male 2 Female
But he's only earning $200 a week and he's having trouble paying the bills
He really needs his big break
And that's just what his smarmy agent is offering - a starring role in a Hollywood blockbuster, big money, working for his favorite director, and playing opposite his favorite Tinsel Town starlet
All Ashraf has to do is play the most stereotypical evil, fanatical Islamic terrorist ever to disgrace the silver screen
Jhad Jones follows Ashraf as he battles the infamous slippery slope, while hilariously balancing his personal ethics and cultural pride against his professional ambition
