Via Dolorosa

Via Dolorosa a monologue by English playwright, screenwriter and theatre and film director David Hare (born 1947), a piece of observational theatre that tries to make sense of the modern Middle East. From Palestine and the plight of refugees to the Stations of the Cross on the Via Dolorosa, it is a mesmeric examination of societies forever on the brink of despair. Presented by Pieter Toerien Productions at the National Arts Festival, 2000, directed by Geoffrey Hyland, starring John Maythem. The production was repeated at the Theatre on the Bay.
