SHE VISITS Translated, adapted and performed by Maja Ardal Inspired by Der Besuch der Alten Dame by Friedrich Dürrenmatt Directed by Jeff Braunstein
She Visits is set in a small town suffering the economic impact of an unspoken world event. A terrible temptation arrives in the form of a rich old woman who once lived there.
Maja Ardal’s version of this story pinpoints the inequality of women in the legal system. It addresses how easily an impoverished community craves monetary wealth, and scrambles to re-invent truth to achieve it.
She Visits was commissioned as part of The Eternal Ego Festival, an initiative to create daring adaptations of multi-character works and performed by a single actor.
