[OPIRG-EVENTS] Oct.17-21 - Play FREEDOM HOUSE
"I believe today's world has a great need for the message of love,
faith in humanity and its destiny."-- Director Jafar Vali
THE BROKEN ENGLISH THEATRE COMPANY
presents
Freedom House
- an exciting new work about understanding and acceptance - exploring
issues of displacement and identity when the world has fallen apart.
The play centers around Zahra, the First Mother of many tribes,
and a modern day refugee who learns how life can change in an instant.
Freedom House
tells the stories of newcomers searching for their roots and
their voice - their personal and collective freedoms.
THE BROKEN ENGLISH THEATRE COMPANY
has provided artistic haven to actors and directors from around the
world who are displaced or have been persecuted for their art.
The production is directed by
renowned director Jafar Vali, formerly from Iran. It is a collaborative
work scripted by Artistic Director Bernadette Hendrickx, with award-winning
writing from the Broken English Writing Competitions.
