About
There is a war coming….
A war that will last for a hundred years….
I think it is already here.
I think we’ve been fighting it a long time
A young Jewish physicist and an activist poet meet at a party and fall in love. As society splinters around them, the couple's struggle to survive erupts into violence. This new play by Cordelia Lynn is a subversive and intimate love story about inheritance and the cycles of politics and history.
LOVE AND OTHER ACTS OF VIOLENCE premiered at the Donmar Warehouse in October 2021, and was the first post-pandemic production in the refurbished theatre.
