Memoirs of a Forgotten Man at Washington Stage Guild

A 2018 hit at the Contemporary American Theatre Festival, Gregorys play portrays the determination of a totalitarian regime to erase history, and the tragic effect that has on a man who can forget nothing. Based on a true story, a man with a photographic memory finds himself and those around him in peril under an authoritarian regime that erases its political enemies. The play, by D.W. Gregory, takes place in the Stalinist Soviet Union, where this mans inability to forget those whom the government has erased becomes increasingly problematic for him and his family.
