The Khan Game - A Nuclear Fable

“The Khan Game” is an innovative play and film written by Craig Eisendrath, Chairman of the Project for Nuclear Awareness (PNA), with elements of historical fact, and elements of theater.

These are Nuclear War Scenarios, taken from real-life possibilities - What if there were an actual nuclear confrontation between Iran and Israel, or Pakistan and India, or an extremist faction procured a nuclear bomb from a rogue proliferator the likes of A.Q. Khan, the man who peddled Pakistan’s nuclear secrets to North Korea and Iran?

Used as a teaching tool, The Khan Game Scenarios are a powerful introduction to world affairs.

Following each section, there is an audience discussion with nuclear experts. The first performance of “The Khan Game” was held at Haverford College on Saturday, November 3, 2007, at Marshall Auditorium.

The Khan Game is a departure from typical discussions and performances about nuclear issues. It emphasizes new hope over the old fear-based approach some politicians have promoted - we've all got questions, and we're looking for answers to avoid new wars.

Our solemn conviction is that in doing such exercises in "What if?" we can learn to make sure of "Never Again," for a nuclear war or holocaust.
