Item Description
This certificate entitles you to two tickets to the upcoming production of "Translations" at the Writers Theatre.
Performances are April 3-April 10, 2025.
LOCATION: 325 Tudor Court, Glencoe, IL
THEATRE: Alexandra C. and John D. Nichols Theatre
ABOUT THE PLAY: Life in County Donegal, Ireland, proceeds much the same in 1833 as it’s always done. Irish-speaking young people gather at the local hedge school where the long-time and long-winded schoolmaster instructs them in lessons in Latin and Ancient Greek. This bucolic tranquility is shattered when the schoolmaster’s son arrives home along with members of the British army on an assignment to map the country, draw new borders, and “standardize” local place names into the King’s English. Soon, this quiet corner of the emerald isle is ablaze with political, cultural and personal tension. A powerful classic from one of Ireland’s most revered dramatists, Translations is a celebration of the power of language—whether it be to kindle romance, incite violence, or build a bridge to a common understanding.
ABOUT THE THEATRE: Writers Theatre has entertained Chicago and the North Shore for more than two decades with inventive interpretations of classic works and a bold approach to contemporary theatre, bringing audiences face to face with powerful stories by creating the most intimate theatrical experience possible.
