MEN WITHOUT SHADOWS

by Jean Paul Sartre

Granary Theatre / 10 - 14 November / €8 & €6

In occupied France in 1944, five resistance fighters are captured after a disastrous attempt to liberate a village. One by one,they are summoned for interrogation by their captors. What will be the value of staying silent, and what the price of talking?
With richly drawn characters and a gripping plot,Jean Paul Sartre explores the nature of truth and freewill in the brutal and morally ambiguous time of war.
First staged in London by Peter Brook in 1947, this rediscovered existential thriller is as potent and provocative today as it was then.
