Seating is limited, so don’t be late…

Tickets? We don’t have tickets because the shows are all FREE. Free, as in, the only thing you’re paying with is your time.

Warning: these shows contain harsh language and content. Use discretion in choosing which show(s) you attend. If you are offended, don’t say I didn’t warn you…

“Two Rooms”
Genre: Tragedy
A young couple is torn apart as terrorists kidnap the husband. The wife takes everything out of his office and barricades herself in with only a small, uncomfortable bed and a small rug, so that she can experience what he is experiencing. Meanwhile a government agent and a newspaper report, both with other motives, claim they are trying to help.

“Pillowman”
Genre: tragicomedy
A writer in totalitarian state is brought in for questioning due to the content of his disturbing short stories in relation to a series of brutal child murders that had been occurring.

“Mint”

A young man’s struggle to accept his father’s death, his mother’s mental illness, and his aunt’s disapproval of his homosexual lifestyle.

 

There will be talk-backs with the director after each performance. Some of us have a lot of explaining to do…

Here are also two of the posters for the shows

So as one can see we have a lot going on in our department for the next few weeks and we are still as busy as ever.

So in closing I would like say that I hope you have a safe week

Until next post,

Steven Van Overbeke

Head of Communications for Waldorf Theatre
