The Word Progress on My Mother’s Lips Doesn’t Ring True

Guest Hungarian/Romanian director Istvan K. Szabo captures the signature comic/tragic surrealism of Matei Visniec’s The Word Progress on My Mother’s Lips Doesn’t Ring True. Winner of the "Best Play in the Off-section" at the Avignon Festival in 2009? this American Premiere delves into the pits of refugee psyche, a metaphysical space where one continuously runs from a place with nothing left, to a place with nothing to offer.
