Ariel Dorfman

In a country where men disappear and women wait for their return. The river yields answers and questions, as the military and landowners enforce a new order, the women find a way to resist. Powerful and poetic, Dorfman’s play is urgently relevant. Dorfman is best known for his play “Death and the Maiden” which was first seen at the Royal Court Theatre.


“There are stories that cry out to be told and if the
words aren’t there they will seep through the skin.”

Ariel Dorfman
