T1983110549
'Somehow, as I attended Mozart's Requiem that Easter, and listened to the strings conjure up this restless soul, I too wanted to resonate and vibrate with passion...' Elizabeth Hess's remarkable play is a funny and moving piece of theatre, performed to huge critical acclaim in America.
Birth Rite is the unforgettable story of a young Mennonite woman who looks for an escape from religious oppression and finds solace, heartache, humour and sexual awakening - but at what price?
