Caryl Churchill's 1990 drama resulted from a trip to Romania not long after the December 1989 Romanian Revolution. Developed with students from London's Central School of Drama, this work is an incisive portrait of a society in turmoil that focuses on two families to reveal what life is like under a totalitarian regime and what results when the regime collapses. The play's brief scenes are almost cinematic in their presentation of events as seen by ordinary people trying to live in peace.
If anyone from the Romanian community would like to attend, we'd love to offer complimentary tickets — folks can make arrangements by emailing me or Ashley O'Toole ([email protected] (mailto:[email protected]).)
