Death and the Maiden
5th - 12th April 2025
By Ariel Dorfman
Directed by Duncan Ley

Book Tickets

A supposed torturer of a fascist regime arrives at the
house of Gerardo and Paulina. Over one night they put
him on trial for his crimes. But are they right? Is he guilty or innocent? Does a single person’s complicity matter? When should justice and punishment cede to compromise and forgiveness, if only for the greater good?

Adult themes. Contains coarse language and some violence.
After-show Talkback: Sunday 6 April (matinée) and Tuesday, 8 April.
