Salomé

In this bold new work, internationally acclaimed adaptor/director Yaël Farber reworks Oscar Wilde’s play with ancient Arabic and Hebraic texts. The result is an urgently relevant exploration of the woman’s voice in history, oppressed people’s power over their own bodies, and the explosive connections between religious and political uprising. Salomé marks STC’s entry in the Women’s Voices Theater Festival with a world premiere adaptation by Farber, returning to STC after her Helen Hayes Award-nominated Mies Julie.
