Widows reveals a village of women widowed by the disappearance of their men under a military regime, seeking to manage their grief, fear and memory. DorfmansÂ’ play translates across all borders, in a world where the constant violation of human rights is not addressed.
The cast and crew at Theatre Nepean examine Dorfman's universal themes of memory and forgetting, the nature of power, dispossession, tradition, and hope for a new world, ringing with contemporary and familiar resonance, under the leadership of Nepean graduate Rochelle Whyte.
“they’re all waiting together / silent, in mourning, / on the riverbank”
