Mad Forest Explores the Human Side of the Romanian Revolution
Open Fist Theatre (Hollywood, CA)
On the eve of the Romanian Revolution in 1989, and under the eternal watch of the secret police, two families — one poor and one wealthy — struggle both to save their friendship and survive the winter. But once the violence has ceased and the euphoria has lifted, will anything have changed? A blend of journalism, fantasy and harsh realism, Mad Forest is the well-researched story of the Romanians at a turning point, delving into the madness and fervor of a society on the brink of upheaval. Open Fist Theatre brings Caryl Churchill’s surreal docudrama and modern classic to life.
