Description

Incident at Vichy by Arthur Miller is a powerful play about our individual relationship with injustice and violence. Written in one act, it portrays 8 men detained in a disused building serving as a police station in France, where they are subjected to a 'racial' inspection by French and German officials. The play explores how guilt can override responsibility, and argues that an element of the Nazi's treatment of Jews during World War II was driven by sadism, self-interest, and evil that exists within us all. This thought-provoking work features commentary and notes by Joshua Polster, making it a valuable resource for students and scholars. Published in 2022 as part of Methuen Drama's Student Edition series, Incident at Vichy is a masterful exploration of the human condition.
