Three women, each a thousand years apart, each fighting to move on from the terror of the past.
After a sold-out production in the US, this revamped UK debut is an experimental melodrama featuring work by emerging New York City playwright Carmen!. UNEARTHED interweaves the story of its modern-day protagonist and her therapist with moments from Sophocles’ Elektra and Hrotsvitha Von Gandersheim’s Paphnutius. These parallel stories of violence and rage dissect the aftermath of gender-based trauma to create a path to recovery.
