Athol Fugard’s The Island comes to life at the Greenhouse Theater. Set in an unnamed prison based on the one where Nelson Mandela was held, The Island tells the story of cellmates who spend their days doing back-breaking labor, and their nights rehearsing Sophocles’Antigone to present to their fellow inmates. Brought to life on stage by the folks at Remy Bumppo, The Island is a testament to the resiliency of the human heart.
We are very happy to be working with Remy Bumppo once again distributing promotional materials all over the city of Chicago for their latest show. There are several new shows opening at the start of the year, but this is one you surely don’t want to miss!
The Island is at the Greenhouse Theater January 27th through March 7th. Please visit www.remybumppo.org for more information.
