Thesis Theater Production-"A la ronda/To the circle"

The Madres de Plaza de Mayo is a human rights organization formed
by the mothers of those who were disappeared during the last Argentine
dictatorship, which held power from 1976 to 1983. In partial fulfillment of her
Honors Thesis in Theater, Claire Whitehouse ’14 directs five women in an
English-language adaptation of their testimonies, which asks the questions:
Where is there a place to mourn in a society that refuses to acknowledge that
the dead ever existed? And what is our role as foreigners in watching these
women in their 35-year march? Tickets will be made available on the day of each
performance at the box office. Off-campus guests may call the box office at
860-685-3355 after 10am to reserve tickets to be held in their names until
fifteen minutes prior to curtain. On-campus guests must pick up their tickets
at the box office. There is a two-ticket limit per person for free ticketed
events.
