About this event

THE VISIT

ADAPTATION OF THE PLAY BY FRIEDRICH DÜRRENMATT

ADAPTED BY MAURICE VALENCY

Directors Shani Erez & Morwenna Rowe

Performed by MA Acting Classical

“It’s me they’re going to pay with!”

In a decrepit town, drowning under the cost of living crisis, there’s a sudden glimmer of hope: their local girl-made-billionaire is returning for a nostalgic visit to her dusty hometown. Welcome signs are being painted, the town’s choir is practising its tunes, and her long-lost-lover is rehearsing the town’s plea for financial support. But the lady has an offer of her own. One the town can’t, but must, refuse.

Dürrenmatt's classic of post-War Germany, re-imagined for post-Brexit Britain, asks the question "What would you do for money?".
