about the play
If stones could speak, what would they say? Maybe through their stony silence they speak to us anyway? Stones announce as soundless witnesses what was afore. They speak as prophets about what is later going to be said about war, destruction and banishment. Which fragments of the past can be discovered, when stones “speak”?
commentaries of the press
"... offer powerful political
theatre, which defies aesthetic categories and reminds us of our humanity."
www.theatre-wales.co.uk
"... the honesty, vulnerability and generosity of their performance ... These are performers whose years of ensemble work and finely so well attuned to one another that they can be present to themselves before their audience , giving the spectator a sense of privilege to be there. They are indeed what Artaud calls
'athletes of the heart'."
