CHARGES (THE SUPPLICANTS)
Experimental
Runs Feb 26 - Apr 12, 2026
A powerful elegy for the plight of refugees, from ancient times to the present.
Nobel Prize winner Elfriede Jelinek’s Charges (The Supplicants) is a cry for the displaced.
Theatre Y transforms the act of seeking a home into a surrealist tightrope walk teetering between gallows humor and tragedy. Originally written to address the global refugee crisis, co-directors Melissa Lorraine and Héctor Álvarez mine Jelinek’s text for truths about a world of closed borders and violent deportations.
