Theatre Y presents SELF-ACCUSATION by Peter Handke

One of the most radical works of the 20th century, Peter Handke’s Self-Accusation takes the audience on a journey that explores our need to confess and our delight in hearing about others’ transgressions. In this play without characters, the actors confess to all sorts of sins, ranging from the monstrosity of dealing in slaves or committing genocide, to the triviality of failing to shake the lotion bottle before use. At times disturbing, funny and profound, this crescendo of wrongdoing suggests that if ‘to err is human,’ then to confess —to make a story out of our transgression— is the beginning of art.

Theatre Y presents its performances free of charge thanks to THE FREE THEATRE MOVEMENT.

Featuring Arlene Arnone Bibbs, Anthôny Battle, Adrian Garcia, Ish Klein, Nadia Pillay, Zahrah Pillay, Howard Raik, Pearl Ramsey, and Kris Tori.

Directed by Hector Alvarez and Melissa Lorraine
