Death and the Maiden

Death and the Maiden

by Ariel Dorfman

Wednesday 26 - Saturday 29 November

A white knuckle thriller portraying a riveting intellectual and emotional tug of war.


Years have passed since political prisoner, Paulina, suffered at the hands of her captor; a man whose face she never saw, but whom she can still recall with terrifying clarity.


Tonight, by chance, a stranger arrives at the secluded beach house she shares with her husband Gerardo, a human rights lawyer. A stranger Paulina is convinced was her tormentor and must be held to account…


‘Stunning… Dorfman uses the form of a claustrophobic cat-and-mouse thriller to raise a series of moral questions… What makes this play first rate is… that Dorfman never supplies easy answers’
The Guardian
