A re-work of the original 2011 play Cativo, this powerful drama sees a man hold a cab driver captive in the back of an abandoned butcher shop. Jason Weights is an ex-staff sergeant who now makes his living as an architect in the city. Rodrigo Silveira is a cab driver who immigrated from Brazil after being held and tortured by the U.S. Military. Be it providence, face, or unfortunate coincidence, Jason takes a cab today. Rodrigo’s cab.
