Only the End of the World

Michael Emerson, Stephen Belber, and Sandra Shipley star in French playwright Jean Luc Lagarce’s Only the End of the World. A man returns to his hometown after many years away. Motivated by the need and desire to reveal his terminal illness to his family, he is instead confronted with the buried wounds of his siblings and mother, wounds that his mere presence reopens. This American premiere is directed and translated by Lucie Tiberghien.
