Play for charity
• 25 Oct 2007 •
 THE Benef*Actors theatre group are presenting their production of ‘Death and the Maiden’ at the Lagoa Auditório . The play will be presented in English on November 16 at 6:30pm and on the 18th at 4pm. All proceeds will go the Silves based charity Castelo de Sonhos.
The play, a psychological thriller, concerns the aftermath of a brutal dictatorship during which the central character, Paulina Salas, was tortured and raped in an attempt to solicit information from her. In the play, Paulina captures the man she believes was responsible for her suffering, a Dr Roberto Miranda. Does she want vengeance, a public confession or the death of the Doctor? In her quest for closure she must fight not only to prove Miranda’s guilt but also to grapple with her husband, Gerardo Escobar. As leader of the newly-created Commission to investigate the crimes of the previous regime, he demands an end her to illegal act of kidnapping. The key roles are played by actors Adela Zander (Clark), a multi-lingual, professional actress based in London, and Thomas Hartmann, a native of Holland, with extensive, professional theatrical experience.
They play the roles of Paulina Salas, the lead role, and Dr. Roberto Miranda. Paul Capper, well known for his roles with the Algarveans theatre group, takes on the role of Gerardo Escobar. To book tickets call 916 350 182 or 917 690 166 or mail to: benef.actors.pt@gmail.com. |  Return to Top
