Theater du Centaure to stage Blackbird in English this November

The production is based on «Blackbird», a play by Scottish playwright David Harrower. This is a joint project by the theater du Centaure and the CAPE arts center. The play is directed by Luxembourg actress and director Miriam Müller. Played by Jill Devress and Jules Werner, known for their roles in the Luxembourg TV series The Captain.

The plot in a nutshell is as follows: A girl comes to visit an elderly man who dated her 15 years ago. It’s not that strange, except back then he was 40, and she was just 12. Since that time, they’ve lost all communication with the man serving time in prison and establishing a new life, while the girl felt both trauma from this abuse and sorrow from being abandoned by a man she genuinely loved. And now they tell each other how their lives were changed by that forbidden relationship.

The Blackbird will be staged at Théâtre du Centaure on:

November 10, 17, 20, 24 and 27 — at 18:30;
November 11, 16, 18, 23 and 25 — at 20:00.

Details and tickets here. The play is free for Kulturpass subscribers.
