Description
Ariel Dorfman's play Widows is a powerful exploration of resistance and survival in the face of oppression. In a war-torn village, the disappearance of men has left women to wait by the river, their anguish unspoken until the bodies of those who have been brutally killed begin to wash up on its banks. As the women defy the military in their only form of protest, they bring attention to the devastating consequences of a regime that values power above human life. Based on Dorfman's 1983 novel of the same name, this play is a searing indictment of injustice and a testament to the enduring strength of the human spirit. Written in collaboration with Tony Kushner, author of Angels in America, Widows is a work of unflinching drama that demands to be heard.
