Young Lady from Rwanda Journal - An Introduction by Elizabeth Pool


From our Resident Dramaturg Elizabeth Pool:

This spring we are thrilled to be working on Sonja Linden’s play I Have Before Me a Remarkable Document Given to Me by a Young Lady from Rwanda. The piece explores the horrors of the Rwandan genocide and tells the story of Juliette, a young survivor struggling to find her story and her voice. Miriam Hyman plays Juliette and agreed to give us a glimpse at her process for creating this character and this play. Over the rehearsal period she will check in with us on a weekly basis to blog about her experience. We hope you will enjoy this peek into an actor’s world and will join us for I Have Before Me a Remarkable Document Given to Me by a Young Lady from Rwanda.
