Saturday 7th June 7:30pm / Doors 7pmPLEASE NOTE CHANGE OF DATE
A Performance at The Bank by The Mustard Theatre Company, an innovative little touring theatre company dedicated to presenting a wide variety of good quality dramas to audiences that may not have access to any other local theatre.Death & The Maiden is set in an unnamed country newly free of dictatorship, where Gerado Escobar is late home from his meeting with the president. Paulina, Gerado’s wife, waits with that mix of dread and hope that only survivors of torture know.
Were it not for the generosity of Dr Roberto Miranda, who drove him home, Gerado would probably still be beside his broken-down car. But Paulina is certain that Roberto’s voice sounds like that of the doctor who supervised her torture. So convinced is she that she lashes him to a chair to interrogate him.
Has she finally become unhinged? Has Dr Miranda an unacknowledged past? Gerado will have to decide whether to put his wife’s need for justice above his own ambition to lead his country’s reconciliation with its past.
