Death and the Maiden
HAODS Studio 26 -28 October 2023
Directed by Mark Wilkin
Paulina Salas is a former political prisoner from an unnamed Latin American country who was raped by her captors, including a sadistic doctor whose face she never saw. The Doctor played Schubert’s String Quartet No 14, subtitled Death and the Maiden, during the act of rape, which gives the play its title. Many years later, she comes face to face with her tormentor, who does not realise that she has recognised his voice. Will she exact her revenge? This intense psychological thriller is ideally suited for the intimate atmosphere of the HAODS Studio. 2 Males : 1 Female
