Mosaic Theatre's DEATH AND THE MAIDEN Closes

Award-winning Mosaic Theatre has announced that Ariel Dorfman's Olivier Award Winning play and recent London hit, Death and the Maiden, makes its Regional Premiere through April 1.

Executive/Artistic Director Richard Jay Simon said, "Death and the Maiden is a modern classic that has always been a favorite of mine and I'm excited that we have the opportunity to do it. It's only a matter of time before this play is revived on Broadway and I'm pleased that we can do it first."

Tony Award winners Glenn Close, Richard Dreyfuss and Gene Hackman starred on Broadway in this political thriller. Set in an unnamed country that is, like the author's native Chile, emerging from a totalitarian dictatorship, the play explores the after-effects of repression on hearts and souls. The show is being described as "a white knuckle thriller is a riveting intellectual and emotional tug of war."

Guest director Avi Hoffman will direct a cast featuring Award Winning Actors Stephen G. Anthony, Laura Turnbull and Oscar Cheda.

Death and the Maiden runs through April 1, Thursdays through Saturdays @ 8:00 with a Saturday matinee at 3:00 and a Sunday matinee at 2:00.
