Written by William Johnson, Directed by Handan Ozbilgin
November 7-9, 2024
Running time: 75 minutes
at Brick Aux Studio – 628 Metropolitan Ave

What is the value of art in a world that’s collapsing? In this play, a group of Istanbul theater artists struggle to regain their footing in the aftermath of the 2023 earthquake that devastated Turkey and Syria. Alternating between gallows humor and grief, Stories Will Not Mend This Broken World explores the effect that violence on a mass scale has on those who witness it from a distance and the inextinguishable drive to create new worlds through art, even when that work feels futile.
