Infanticide

Synopsis:
Infanticide presents the young mother standing on trial. Interrupted by the voices of the judge, her father and her boyfriend who urge her to justify herself, she reveals her story, her confusion, her anger and her pain. Can her crime be understood as a political act? Composed as a powerful psychological monologue, the play interweaves thought and heart in a skilful theatrical way. Forty years after its initial opening in Austria, this critically acclaimed play by the successful political playwright Peter Turrini finally arrives on a British stage.
