Synopsis:
“Set in an unnamed country that is, like the author’s native Chile,
emerging from a totalitarian dictatorship, the play explores the after
effects of repression on hearts and souls. Paulina Escobar’s husband
Gerardo is to head an investigation into past human rights abuses. A Dr.
Miranda stops at Escobars’ to congratulate Gerardo. Paulina overhears
them speaking and is convinced that Miranda supervised her prison
torture sessions. She ties him to a chair and conducts her own
interrogation, gun in hand. Escobar doesn’t know whether to believe his
distraught wife or his persuasive new friend. This white knuckle
thriller is a riveting intellectual and emotional tug of war.”
