The Visit
by Friedrich Dürrenmatt, translated by Maurice Valency
Meet the good people of Güllen, a town on its knees after years of economic hardship. Hope arrives by train with the visit of a former resident, but it comes with a price. This dark comedy presents us with the question - can justice be bought?
Written in 1956 by Friedrich Dürrenmatt and translated by Maurice Valency, The Visit is a profound look at desperation with familiar resonances to Ireland's recent past.
Duration: 2 hours and 40 minutes with an interval.
Suitable for ages 16+
Content advisory: The Visit contains adult themes as well as the use of firearms and flashing images.
Please note if patrons leave the auditorium during the performance, they will not be readmitted.
