A play set in a living room, will resonate most from a living room. And thus, the unwitting audience of Ariel Dorfman’s Death and the Maiden found itself sitting in the living room of Paulina Salas and Gerardo Escobar.
 
The Chilean drama, dealing with the uneasy themes of justice, innocence, and the lengthy process of healing from historical trauma, utilised the entirety of the apartment space - namely the kitchen, living room, hallway and bathroom. A very special thanks belongs to the team of Šimoník Architekti. Their gorgeous interior masterfully juxtaposed flawless aesthetics with the theme of deep-rooted systemic and human flaws. 

Our production of Death and the Maiden was presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd.
