We’re still a couple of months away from our first haboob of the year, and most of us try to avoid being in the middle of the huge dust storms.

But a new play called "Haboob" is actually trying to draw us into the storm — in a magical realism sort of way.

It’s written by Marvin Gonzalez De Leon, and it's being performed Thursday night through Sunday by ASU’s School of Film, Dance and Theatre at the Nelson Fine Arts Center on the Tempe campus.
